: I've got a Toshiba Satellite 2140CDS with the same controller.  My problem is
: that the ethernet card I use (a 3Com 575) is recognized, get's a DHCP address
: (not quickly, but after a few tries), but then can NOT do anything (i.e.: can't
: ping, nslookup can't connect to a server, other hosts cannot ping it).

: There is a related thread at BSD forums:

: 
: My floppy drive is not working either, and I only got my thumbdrive back today
: so hopefully I will able to get some info off the machine for further analysis.
: 
: In the BIOS I have set the controller to CardBus because of a tip I read for
: (excuse me) Win 95.  I will try PCIC tonight/this weekend.
: 
: But I also noticed in man pccbb that the controller was explicitly listed.  So
: is there a way I can get the kernel to use that driver?  If it is a driver?!  Or
: am up the wrong tree?

xl has some issues in releng_6 that have been fixed in -current.
These problems were in resource allocation in the pci code.  Other
cardbus cards won't be affected.
