Re: Sierra Wireless Aircard 750 GSM/GPRS

Since my last posting I have made some progress with this card under Linux. 
Under the guidance of the Sierra folks the card works with the standard serial 
driver using the cis flag. This points to a separate binary file that 
overrides the card probe and explicitly tells the machine what the card CIS 
info is. Any suggestions on how to do this under freebsd? Alternatively, any 
suggestions on how to extract the relevant info from the cis file to make the 
freebsd driver work. Here's the output from 'cardctl config' under linux:

Socket 1:
  Vcc 5.0V  Vpp1 0.0V  Vpp2 0.0V
  interface type is "memory and I/O"
  irq 3 [exclusive] [level]
  speaker output is enabled
  function 0:
    config base 0x0700
      option 0x61 status 0x08 ext 0x00
    io 0x02f8-0x02ff [8bit]

Many thanks,

Julian
