pccard slot not working properly

[M. Warner Losh]

I hate to sound like Bill Paul, but can you provide a little more
information?  Like what card is this?  Cardbus or PC Card?

I'd boot -v and also turn on the following tunables:
	hw.cbb.debug=1
	hw.pccard.cis_debug=1
	hw.pccard.debug=1
	hw.cardbus.cis_debug=1
	hw.cardbus.debug=1
in /boot/loader.conf and post the dmesg here (or a pointer to it), in
addition to cc'ing me.  My wife is expecting any day now, so I might
suddenly disappear for a couple of weeks.  There are others here that
can help you out, however, if you post this basic information.

: Next, I rebooted it without the card:
: $ ls /dev > I-dev
: $ dmesg > I-dmesg
: $ pciconf > I-pciconf

: Any suggestions?
