Or a pci IrDA device : }or something that FreeBSD doesn't speak to but which is using : }irq 3 ... I suspect the problem is that pccardd is assigning : }irq 3 to the nic and it is freaking out the system. : sorry, no winmodem. Sorry!? That is a good thing. I thought Dell pretty much stuck 'em in everything. : }Try using a more safe choice .. say 10. Try creating : }/etc/pccard.conf which simply consists of the line : } : }irq 10 : } : }This will tell it to only try irq 10 with pccards by overriding : }the irq line /etc/defaults/pccard.conf : : which is the 'prefered' solution? : changing the configuration : device pcic0 at isa? irq 0 ... : to : device pcic0 at isa? irq 10 ... : (are there cards that behave correctly with irq 0?) : : or the : /etc/pccard.conf : : anyways, thanks, i now have the ethernet working - now to get the video ... Which ever one works for you :) Seriously, they are different things though. Adding irq 10 to /etc/pccard.conf forces ep0 to attach using irq 10. Putting irq 10 in the pcic line of the kernel has the pccard bus/bridge interrupting on irq 10, and you have to use a different (and free) irq for the NIC.
