Hello Kevin, Firstly, thanks for the answers. > I can't help you with most of the problem. I have a Xircom and have > had no similar problems. I have found the cause; in the rc.conf file the pccardd_flags had been set to "-i 10" forcing it to use that IRQ. Removing that, and then fixing the list of free interrupts in /etc/pccard.conf to remove the ones already claimed (just about all of them!). > But maybe I can help on the issues of pcic1. > > The GENERIC kernel has the pcic1 device listed as "disable".

Thanks, that gets the external slots enabled - glad I asked before hunting for the answer in the code ;-) > If you have a spare IRQ or two, you might assign them to the pcic > devices.

Tried this, but it doesn't seem to detect any card insertions or removals; works OK in polled mode though so I'm not that bothered. Thanks again for the help, John... > Good luck! > > R.
