Still dead in the water with my wireless PCI/pccard combo which used to work before this commit. It appears to have broken several other devices, too. Is there an effort to restore a working in.c into -STABLE at some point? --Morgan > -----Original Message----- > From: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG [mailto:owner-freebsd- > stable@FreeBSD.ORG] On Behalf Of M.
