The kernel configuration that I couldn't get to work was basically GENERIC with
SCSI, USB commented out and IPFW added. The one that works is the NEWCARD with
almost identical but with the following differences only, I think.
#device card # pccard bus
#device pcic # pcmcia bridge
device pccard
device cardbus
device pccbb # cardbus (yenta) bridge
and the -I -i 10 in my case.
Generic still has card and pcic and doesn't have pccard, cardbus and pccbb.
Those changes seem to have made my old k-6 laptop a very happy camper.:-)
The only problem was it took me three days to find a combination that worked.
This helps maintain the level of excitement generated by current, that has
abounded recently:-)
Thanks for the months of work on the integration fo cardbus into current.
