Re: old serial RS-232 pccard and wi driver.

Can you run a small test?  Can you build a kernel w/o wi?  Further,
can you do
sysctl hw.pccard.cis_debug=1
before you insert the card (or put the hw=1 part in
/boot/loader.conf) and send me the result?

old serial RS-232 pccard and wi driver.

[raoul.megelas]

Hello,

I encounter a strange problem with an old rs-232 serial pccard on current (just
cvsup'ed).

The card works quite well on 5.0-RELEASE, but it it is detected as a wlan
card on current, and the system attempts to run the wi driver. This calls ther
 debugger, and the (continue) command reboot the machine, and that at boot,
or after any card insertion. 

I don't know if the machine is very relevant but ...
   DELL Inspiron 8000 laptop..
The acpi is loaded, and seems to work.
An Adaptec apa-1460 pccard works well too, (the IRQ (11) is correctly
handled).

Here is the message at boot:

pccard1: CIS checksum failed.
wi0: "Socket Communications Low Power wlan card" at port 0x100-0x107 irq 11=
 fun1
wi0 init failed.
panic block: (sleep mutex" wi0 not locked @ /usr/src-current/src/sys/devwi/=
if_w3
debugger (panic) stopped at:
  debugger+0x54: xchgl %ebx,in_debugger.0.

Sorry if I have forgotten something.

Best regards

raoul
