Circa 2003-08-07 12:52:52 -0600 dixit M. Warner Losh:

: I think I was taking too many grumpy pills.  Sorry about that.

No worries; these things happen.

: : If you like, i can post a photo of these cards for you.

: I'd rather own them. :-)  Seriously, what cards are they?

LinkSys Combo PCMCIA EthernetCard (Model EC2T) [dongle with RJ-45 and BNC]
LinkSys EtherFast 10/100 PC Card (Model PCMPC100) [dongle with RJ-45]

: No.  You are confusing '16-bit bridge (aka ISA)' and '16-bit PC
: Card' (aka PCMCIA or R2 cards).  The classic 16-bit bridge support
: is for ISA bridges only.  Since you are probing and attaching to
: cbb, you must have a 32-bit cardbus bridge.  I have a large
: collection of 16-bit PC Cards that work on a large variety of
: laptops that are also in my collection.

Hmmm ... wonder if it's possible that it's the bridge in my Vaio
PCG-505TR that doesn't like the shared interrupt.  Might that explain
the odd panic with the Adaptec SlimSCSI 1460D under 5.1-RELEASE (see
initial message in this thread)?
