Bad assumption. cardbus cards do not talk to pccard slots at all. That's the whole problem. There is nothing wrong with the VAIO when it is talking to pccards. If you don't want to toss the nic card, you'd have to either port the netbsd cardbus code, or write your own.

Keromytis" Sender: openbsd-mobile-owner@monkey.org Precedence: bulk Return-Path: Mickey has made a bootable ramdisk floppy with a kernel with new APM support. This APM support seems to fix all the IBM ThinkPads we can get our hands on, and doesn't break any currently working laptops (except for the Tecra 530). We'd like people to test this new floppy on their laptops (and, if possible, on APM-equiped PCs) and mail us the results, as we want to commit the patch in the OpenBSD tree as soon as possible, while making sure nothing else breaks. Even if you did test another APM floppy or kernel recently (you know who you are), please try the new one. You can download the floppy from http://www.cis.upenn.edu/~angelos/apm-floppy26.fs Write it to a disk (dd if=apm-floppy26.fs of=/dev/fd0a), and boot from it. Go into the shell, and type: 1) apmd -S /foo this will start the APM daemon 2) apm -f /foo -S at this point, your laptop screen should turn off; hit any key to make it come back from sleep mode. Some laptops immediately return from sleep mode, with no key pressed. If that happens, please mention it in your message. 3) apm -f /foo -z your laptop should turn off; you'll need to power it back up to resume. IBMs turn off but can be resurrected by hitting the "Fn" key; other laptops may have different resume methods. If this fails, your laptop will probably not resume but try to boot, or will print some error message and then try to boot. If it does, mention the printed message when you mail us. 4) try (2) and (3) with the laptop running on the battery (not plugged in); some laptops' APM behaves differently when the AC is plugged in. If they do, please mention it in your message to us. 5) For IBM and Sony VAIO users, try the "save to disk" feature by hitting "Fn+F12" (other laptops may have this feature too); turn it back on and see if it worked properly. Again, try this with the AC plugged in and when running on batteries (the ThinkPad 770Z for example won't suspend to disk when it's plugged in). 6) halt -p Your laptop should completely shut down; you shouldn't need to press the power button to turn it off. As I said, you should try (2) and (3) (and (5) if your laptop supports it) both when your laptop is connected to external power, and when it's not. Please mail mickey@openbsd.org and angelos@openbsd.org with the results of your tests. In particular (especially if one of the tests fails), mail us the boot message buffer (/kern/msgbuf). Also, tell us if the 2.6 (or -current) APM works or not (so we know whether we broke something, or it just didn't work to begin with).

Everything runs off the ramdisk. You don't have to have OpenBSD installed for testing the kernel on the floppy. As far as testing 2.6-current you'd need to have it installed and updated :). It is handy if you do, however, from the point of view of saving dmesg output to send in (mounting your partition and putting a text file there). I don't recall offhand if the kernel on the ramdisk had network support. I'm curious what your results will be. I like the thinkpad 365s :) Mickey/Angelos et al... please give us an indication how this goes in an overall sense. Later today I should be able to test a couple of different 600s/I series/390s. On my 380ed "weird stuff" happened. I'll be sending in my stuff for it soon. For the thinkpads it *might* not be a bad idea to also include some settings output from the PS2 program (unfortunately you'd have to run that in win32/dos[or OS/2 of course :)]). It's possible the the weirdness I'm experiencing could be from BIOS settings made by the PS2 program (or by the win32 thinkpad utilities program). regards, n ------ d neal wise - nwise@spy.net SPY internetworking - will network for food http://www.spy.net From owner-openbsd-mobile-outgoing@monkey.org Sun Jan 30 12:14:48 2000 Delivered-To: openbsd-mobile-outgoing@monkey.org Received: by funky.monkey.org (Postfix, from userid 502) id 5474015193; Sun, 30 Jan 2000 12:14:48 -0500 (EST) Delivered-To: openbsd-mobile@monkey.org Received: by funky.monkey.org (Postfix, from userid 1001) id 657361518F; Sun, 30 Jan 2000 12:14:47 -0500 (EST) Received: from wasabi.it.uq.edu.au (wasabi.it.uq.edu.au [130.102.192.56]) by funky.monkey.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 3EFBE15189 for ; Sat, 29 Jan 2000 07:07:34 -0500 (EST) Received: from it2.it.uq.edu.au (marta.it.uq.edu.au [130.102.64.110]) by wasabi.it.uq.edu.au (8.8.7/8.8.7) with ESMTP id WAA21724; Sat, 29 Jan 2000 22:07:19 +1000 (EST) Received: from localhost (d@localhost) by it2.it.uq.edu.au (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id WAA08672; Sat, 29 Jan 2000 22:06:48 +1000 (EST) X-Authentication-Warning: it2.it.uq.edu.au: d owned process doing -bs Date: Sat, 29 Jan 2000 22:06:47 +1000 (EST) From: David Leonard X-Sender: d@it2.it.uq.edu.au Reply-To: David Leonard To: "Angelos D.

If it sleeps for more than, say 20 minutes, it locks up on wake and after reset i have to spend about 4 hours of "fsck -y" and "clri"'ing great swathes of trashed consecutive inodes. as a consequence i fear suspend mode; is this a known problem? is this known? i don't really want to have to burn up this laptop... again :) i heard that the portege(?) apm saves phsymem to the last sectors of the disk... but when i checked i could not find any information explicitly saying that the tecra does or doesn't have this feature. (any comment?) i had reasoned that, since a short (20 second) sleep does not corrupt the disk and there is no activity while asleep, that this is not the cause. but i could be wrong. oh well.. its 11% downloaded now.. and i'm game. > We'd like people to test this new floppy on their laptops (and, if possible, > on APM-equiped PCs) and mail us the results, as we want to commit the patch > in the OpenBSD tree as soon as possible, while making sure nothing else breaks. i'd like to test this on my 4MB 486 PDA too, but unfortunately it won't cope with ramdisks, nor without 'option NKPDE=16'. is it possible to get a tarball of the ramdisk and a separate kernel image from you? if this is too much pain i could just wait for commit and build it myself & mail you results. d -- David Leonard David.Leonard@csee.uq.edu.au Dept of Comp.

When the machine is booted, it seems to probe and recognize the network adapter. But.... after the boot and whenever I try to use the network, it always gives the "device timeout" error message. When the same card is used in Windows, the IRQ is 11 and the address is 0x220. OBSD seems to recognize the same card at IRQ 3 and address 0x340. I have turned off "Plug-n-Play" in the BIOS. I have tried to use the "-c" option during boot to access the UKC. In the UKC, when I list the kernel devices, it shows that ne3 has the IRQ 11, but during the boot it still shows: pcmcia0: card irq 3 I am assuming that I'm getting the device timeout because the operating system is trying to communicate with the network adapter at the wrong IRQ or address. But it seems that I can't get the operating system to communicate with the card at the correct IRQ and address. Is there a "save" feature in UKC that I am missing?
