The pci->cardbus adapter with an ath card in it not working could be
one of three things:
(1) the pci bus numbering problem.
(2) lack of 3.3 regulators on the card so only r2 cards can
work
(3) Sam's power issues
I'm guessing #1 in this case.
To tell if it is #1, you'll need to look to see if the subbus and
such. sysctl dev.cbb will likely give me the next step in this
debugging process.
For my (working) laptop I see:
dev.cbb.0.%parent: pci6
dev.cbb.0.domain: 0
dev.cbb.0.pribus: 6
dev.cbb.0.secbus: 7
dev.cbb.0.subbus: 7
but that's because the pribus, secbus and subbus are set right up the
tree:
dev.pci.6.%desc: ACPI PCI bus
dev.pci.6.%driver: pci
dev.pci.6.%parent: pcib3
dev.pcib.3.%desc: ACPI PCI-PCI bridge
dev.pcib.3.%driver: pcib
dev.pcib.3.%location: slot=20 function=4 handle=\_SB_.PCI0.P2P_
dev.pcib.3.%pnpinfo: vendor=0x1002 device=0x4371 subvendor=0x0000
subdevice=0x0000 class=0x060401
dev.pcib.3.%parent: pci0
hmmm, maybe I should add these debug diagnostics to pcib too.
