However, it seems that the card sockets are not being detected with an IRQ, even if we force it (with "machdep" statements, and assigning them in the kernel config). I've recieved lots of help from a person on the freebsd-mobile list but we're still not much further. He mentioned that he was sure he knew of some people using CURRENT on 7000's. I'm looking for anyone who has this laptop and uses ANY version of FBSD, and if it's possible, some details on how you got the card sockets to detect properly. The 7000's use a TI-1220 Cardbus contoller wiht a Carbus/ISA bridge (like most do), so anyone using that particular contoller might be able to help us also. We don't mind which version we install, we've tried STABLE and CURRENT without much sucess thus far. Thanks in advance for any help. -- ---------------------- Pat Wendorf beholder@unios.dhs.org ICQ: 1503733 --------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
