I really need to watch this list closer. My apologies Warner. I really do appreciate the effort your putting in here, and I feel apologies are in order for not replying sooner. As to the answer, it looks like I am. Here's some of my dmesg where pci stuff is concerned. pcic0: <TI PCI-1250 PCI-CardBus Bridge> mem 0x7fffe000-0x7fffefff irq 11 at device 12.0 on pci0 pcic0: Polling mode pcic0: TI12XX PCI Config Reg: [speaker enable][pwr save][CSC serial isa irq] pccard0: <PC Card bus (classic)> on pcic0 pcic1: <TI PCI-1250 PCI-CardBus Bridge> mem 0x7ffff000-0x7fffffff irq 11 at device 12.1 on pci0 pcic1: Polling mode pcic1: TI12XX PCI Config Reg: [speaker enable][pwr save][CSC serial isa irq] For those folks on this list having to pull batteries out to get a power down, I may have a reasonable work around for you. Pull out the nic card prior to issuing the "halt" command. For whatever reason, pccardd seems to properly get out of the way of a shut down when it detects the card is no longer in the slot. Both "halt" and "reboot" work properly every time when I do this. With the card in the slot, it hangs every time, even if I manually kill pccardd. This seems to be working on a stable build a couple of weeks old, as well as one I just did about a day ago. Now it seems that I have a new issue. I configured this box for ipfw, and I got the rules to play nice and all except for one teensy problem. The ipfw rules load up on boot prior to the nic card registering. ipfw is smart enough to not add rules for interfaces that don't exist, so it just don't happen until I manually reload the rules file. Seems I recall another thread somewhere on this list talking about this. Now I know what they were talking about. Later on, PS: It is still cooler than all heck running FreeBSD on this here laptop. Even with the glitchies, I'm having a LOT of fun with this thing. Warner, I don't think any of us can thank you enough for all the effort you've put in to help make this possible.
