I don't have access to a Windows laptop for testing the card, but the person from whom I got it insists it was working with XP just two days ago. -Davis ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Problems with WPC11 wirelss card on FreeBSD 4.10
I just put a fresh install of FreeBSD 4.10 from CD on my Presario 1610 laptop (ancient!), and I'm trying to get a Linksys WPC11 wireless card working with my home network. The wireless card uses the Prism 2 chipset, and was recognized when I plugged it in. I did 'wicontrol -n "my network SSID"' and 'wicontrol -p 1'. I then tried to set up the card via DHCP in /stand/sysinstall, and failed, so I set the network information manually. However, ifconfig -a still showed "status: no carrier." So I tried 'wicontrol -r 2432' thinking that I might need to have the RTS set to agree with my wireless AP, but still no luck. Except for a brief moment of connectivity, I remain unable to connect. All this took place about 5 feet from the AP, which is not using WEP, so signal should not be an issue. Is there something I'm missing in my setup here? -Davis ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Attempting to play an mp3 via xmms fails (since /dev/dsp doesn't exist). Were I running one of the older trees, I would say that I need to run sh MAKEDEV snd0, but that seems to be gone from 5.x. I would be interested in seeing precisely the lines you put into your kernel regarding sound. Unless there is some obvious thing I failed to do, I shall move my question over to FreeBSD-mobile.

pcm, cbb problems in 5.1 w/Thinkpad
aI've been trying to get FreeBSD 5.1 running on an inherited Thinkpad 600 (my first foray into both laptops and the 5.x tree), and I have stumbled a little bit in properly configuring the kernel. I have not found any solutions in the archives for these, so any suggestions would be heartily appreciated (especially ones that work). First off, I included the line device pcm in my kernel, compiled, and installed. The result (as reported by dmesg) was as follows: pcm1: on isa0 device_probe_and_attach: pcm1 attach returned 6 unknown: can't assign resources (port) unknown: can't assign resources (port) unknown: can't assign resources (port) unknown: can't assign resources (port) I then tried putting the following lines in device.hints (though this file is one of the aspects of 5.1 I'm still unfamiliar with): hint.pcm.0.at="isa" hint.pcm.0.irq="5" hint.pcm.0.drq="1" hint.pcm.0.flags="0x0" The result was the same. A less important issue (since I don't currently use any PCMCIA cards) is with cbb0: cbb0: mem 0x20301000-0x20301fff at device 2.0 on pci 0 cardbus0: on cbb0 pccard0: <16-bit PCCard bus> on cbb0 cbb: Unable to map IRQ... device_probe_and_attach: cbb0 attach returned 12 cbb0: mem 0x2030-0x20300fff at device 2.1 on pci 0 cardbus1: on cbb0 pccard1: <16-bit PCCard bus> on cbb0 cbb: Unable to map IRQ... device_probe_and_attach: cbb0 attach returned 12 Similar output occurs for cardbus1, cardbus2, and cardbus3. -Davis Doherty ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
