3com Fast Ethernet 10/100 Base-TX PC CARD (3CCFE575CT-D) does't work in Toshiba Satellite Pro 445CDX

[DYZ at mail.ru]

Hello Everybody!

I am writing to ask some pieces of advice from you.

I have Toshiba Satellite Pro 445CDX running FreeBSD5.2-Release.

Everything is OK, except 3Com Fast Ethernet 10/100 Base-TX PC CARD
(model 3CCFE575CT-D) hooked up to PCMCIA slot. The system does not
recognized neither with GENERIC nor OLDCARD kernel.

Switching between PCIC Compatible and CardBus/16-Bit modes in BIOS does not
help. I use PCIC Compatible, because CardBus/16-Bit mode does not let
me use 56K Global Modem PC Card (model 3CCM156).

dmesg tells me

pcic0: Polling mode
pccard0:<PC Card 16-Bit bus (classic)> on pcic0
pccard1:<PC Card 16-Bit bus (classic)> on pcic0
...
pccard: card inserted, slot 1          #(it's my modem)
sio4 bla-bla-bla
sio4 type 16550A


pccardc dumpcis tells me about slot1 (modem) only.


Additional info.

Originally I installed FreeBSD 4.9 on the laptop but the system told
me that 32-bit bus is unsupported when I tried to insert my 3Com Fast Ethernet 10/100 Base-TX PC CARD
(model 3CCFE575CT-D) . Perhaps I still have the same problem. But as
far I know freebsd5.2 supports 32-bit bus, may be laptop's PCMCIA
controller has 16 bit bus only.

Any suggestions are appreciated in advance.

PS. Allied Telesyn Fast Ethernet CardBus PC Card (AT-2800TX) does't
work too.
