As a follow-up, I have managed to configure the PCMCIA slot to interface with the 3C589D, but am unable to set up the MELCO LPC3-TX. I am now having a little problems while attempting to fix the MELCO problem. I've man'd "pccard.conf", but it seems like some of the options specified in the man pages are not understood by pccardd. Also, I don't fully understand how to interface PCMCIA stuff to begin with. Is there an updated man-page for pccard.conf on 4.1-RELEASE? Also, is there any general guidelines to debugging/tweaking PCMCIA devices? I've tried the PAO page, but many external links on there are in Japanese, and I have no 'dang' idea what they are saying. And no, there is nothing in the FreeBSD handbook (last time I checked anyway). Any help would be greatly appreciated. Alvin Poon, System Engineer CSEE Transport Hong Kong Limited p.s. the thing that bugs me the most is that the card is described in /etc/defaults/pccard.conf (and in the PAO list). ----- Original Message ----- From: Alvin Poon <alvin@staff.csee-transport-hk.com.hk> To: <freebsd-mobile@freebsd.org> Sent: Monday, September 04, 2000 6:28 PM Subject: PCCARD problems with 4.1-release > Hi, > > I have a little problem with driving the PCMCIA slot on my Sony VAIO.
