[tlinux-users:07479] Re: Detecting 2 PCMCIA in a Tecra 500 CDT from OpenBSD

My BIOS use two type of pccard controller mode, they are : PCIC
Compatible and Card BUS/ 16 Bit. The first one works fine and I can
detect at the same time two cards in OpenBSD 3.8(PANASONIC KXL-D740 4x
CDROM and 3COM  3CCE58 CARD),but when I try to use the Atheros card
with any other card at same time (For example 3com + Atheros Wireless
for a Gateway+FireWall) my Atheros is not detected. Now, when i change
my BIOS configuration and change the PCMCIA controller (CARD BUS/ 16
BIT) OPENBSD detect at last one card but not both. (DETECT THE CARD
INSERTED IN FIRST PCMCIA SLOT ).
I print the two dmesg result with the diferent configuration.

Let me reboot, and in the next message i Will show up :D
