    I tried using "devd" (starting it from the commandline) - same errors
    as outlined above. Also tried with a kernel that's based on "OLDCARD" -
    again same errors. BTW, the manpage for devd.conf(5) doesn't give any explict
    examples/hints - at least in my version...

    Just to make sure it's not a HW-problem: I've tried using the same PCcards
    under both Linux and FreeBSD 4.8 - no problems at all.

    In case it's a problem with the devd.conf - do you have any pointers on
    how to set up a proper config file for devd using the follwing cards
    Cisco Aironet 250 (WLAN)
    Elsa Airlancer MC11 (WLAN)
    Xircom 10/100 (Ethernet)

    TIA for your help
