Xircom Credit Card Ethernet CEM56-100 : xe

[Shahab Sanjari]

Hi everybody,

I installed FreeBSD 5.1 from CD on my IBM Thinkpad T22 which works really
good. I need to use a Xircom Credit Card Ethernet CEM56-100 with it,
mostly because I specially checked with the hardware support list before I
actually buy the card. Now I have a problem with it. I searched the whole
archive of the freebsd-xircom mailing list and tried to read comments on
this device. But the "ifconfig"  still doesn't recognize the XE0 as an
ethernet interface.

The command "pccardc dumpcis" answers with: "0 slots found" The pccard
daemon "pccardd" does not run at startup and when I start it manually it
says:"pccardd[773]: fatal error: no PC-CARD slots"

Surprisingly, each time, I insert the card into the running system I get
the following message:

xe0: <Xircom CreditCard Ethernet 10/100 + Modem 56> at port 0x2
e8-0x2ef irq 11 function 0 config 39 on pccard0
device_probe_and_attach: xe0 attach returned 19

The modem doesn't work either, eventhough I tried to uncomment the entry
in the pccard.conf.

Following is my dmesg. Since it might have been unpleasent to look at a
long system message, I tried to delete many lines which (I thought) are
not related to the topic. The XE is at the end.

I would appreciate any comments on this.

Bests,
Shahab.
