I think I sent mail out to -current or -mobile about this a while back. (Can't find it from searching the archives...) I see from the dmesg that you aren't using the onboard Broadcom 10/100 chip (bfe driver) or the onboard wirless (mine has a TrueMobile 1300, which is a Broadcom b/g chip). (Bill Paul's ndis code in -current allows you to use the Windows driver to talk to it.) I think you'll find that if you do, you'll get a panic when you try to insert the wireless card. (Or, if you have the wireless card inserted, you'll get a panic when you try to load the driver for the ethernet or wirless chip.) Ken -- Kenneth Merry ken@kdm.org
