    Not sure. It looks like it should be good.

    : But a pccardc is there - and it's not started either.

    pccardc and pccardd are still built, but aren't used (although pccard
    dumpcisfile will be shortly).

    : How do I do this? In the sys/conf/NOTES there is nothing to find 'bout

    Should be added.

    hw.pccard.cis_debug=1
    hw.pccard.debug=1
    hw.cbb.debug=1
    hw.cardbus.cis_debug=1
    hw.cardbus.debug=1

    should do the trick.

    OK. I'll investigate why it isn't picking things up.
