DE-650 hangs on insertion - Dell Latitude C600

Tue Apr 22 01:48:54 PDT 2003

Hi,

Having issues with a DE-650 PCMCIA Ethernet card under FreeBSD 4.8-RC1.  
The laptop I'm trying to use it on is a Dell Latitude C600.

All appears OK when I insert the card, but after a few seconds, the
system appears to hang (well, perhaps just keyboard and mouse input,
but I can't move the mouse or type anything).  I can remove the card
and the system will start working again, and all my mouse movements
and keystrokes will be unbuffered and executed. 

I get the following log entries upon inserting the card:

Apr 19 16:56:45 sindri /kernel: pccard: card inserted, slot 0
Apr 19 16:56:51 sindri pccardd[108]: Card "D-Link"("DE-650") [Ver 01.00] [(null)
] matched "D-Link" ("/DE-6[56]0/") [(null)] [(null)]

s, irq 11, flags 0
--- (At this point, the system hangs)

Upon removing the card, I get:

Apr 19 16:57:04 sindri pccardd[108]: driver allocation failed for D-Link(/DE-6[5
6]0/): Device not configured
Apr 19 16:57:05 sindri /kernel: pccard: card removed, slot 0
Apr 19 16:57:05 sindri pccardd[108]: ed0: D-Link (/DE-6[56]0/) removed.

I have the same issue with this card whether I plug it in by itself, 
or with another card.

Other PCMCIA cards successfully tested in the machine under the
same release of FreeBSD, with the same kernel and pccard config are:

- Orinoco Gold card (uses wi driver, all OK)
- Xircom REM100 card (comes up as CEM56, uses device xe0, both modem
  and ethernet are good)
- SMC EtherEZ PC Card (uses sn driver, all OK)
- Some form of D-Link Intel Pro/100 clone (can't remember, but I did
  use this card at some point successfully).

And I have used the DE-650 successfully in the past on the same laptop
under Linux, and a Toshiba Satellite Pro 430CDT (yes, old, I know) under 
Linux.

I've checked pccard.conf for a couple of things.  According to a list
posting I read elsewhere sometimes PCMCIA cards don't work due to memory
conflicts.  I tried changing the memory from '0xd4000 96k' to '0xd0000 16k'
I also changed the list of IRQ's to those actually available in the machine.  
Neither of these changes (either alone, or in combination) make any 
difference. 

I also tried changing my kernel to use 'device ed' instead of the default
'device ed0 blah blah..' - this also had no effect.

(note - the Xircom card does work, despite the 'watchdog timeout' message)

Any help would be greatly appreciated, and will hopefully save me the
cost of buying another PCMCIA ethernet card! :)
