>Organization:
>Environment:
FREEBSD 5.2.1-RELEASE GENERIC
>Description:
PCMCIA: The hi- and low-bytes for the vendor MELCO are swapped  (should be manufacturer 0x8a01, product 0xc1ab).

Once the bytes are swapped back and kernel recompiled (with GENERIC), the card gave the incorrect MAC address.

It's running on a Gateway Solo 9300, if that helps...
>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
Partially: In the pccarddevs file, fix the MELCO manufacturer code to 0x8a01.
