PCMCIA trouble

[Martin Schmachtel <schmadde@syscall.de>]

Hi,

I recently installed OpenBSD 2.4 on my IBM Thinkpad 560. So far everything
works o.k., but I've got trouble getting PCMCIA-Ethernet support to work.
First I tried with an NE2000 compatible Card (CNet CN40BC), which didn't 
get recognised. After a little looking around in the kernel sources 
(I'm fairly new to OpenBSD) I found the place where I could insert the 
CIS-Values and stuff to make the kernel find it (I used the values
from linux's pcmcia-cs-3.0.5 Package, the card works under linux).

I belive I got the values right, but something is still fishy:

Dec 29 04:22:33 run /bsd: ne2: enet addr has incorrect vendor code
Dec 29 04:22:33 run /bsd: ne2: (00:00:80 should be 00:80:ad)

(yes, it's been a few days since). The Kernel seems to read the wrong
enet addr (the vendor code is correct, I double checked). I also tried
a 3com Card, which didn't work as well (I'll attach the logs at the end
of the message), so I think there might be a Problem with the PCMCIA-Chip
itself. Does anybody have an idea what to look for next? Is this a known
problem? Thanks for any hint.

Here's the logs, kernel compiled with options PCMCIAVERBOSE and PCMCIADEBUG:

with the CNet:
