It is more automated these days. For the most part, I just insert a card and it works. I have 'pccard_ifconfig=DHCP' in my rc.conf file. In fact, here's all the entries that I have: pccard_enable=YES # Enable pccardd pccard_mem=0xd4000 # use alternate memory address since d0000 used pccard_beep=0 # keep quiet on card events pccard_ifconfig=DHCP # use dhclient for all cards Warner To Unsubscribe: send mail to [email protected] with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
