I am stunned to see that my Texas Instruments PCI1420 PC Card Controller
(Omnibook XE3-GC) does not work with NetBSD 3.1, although it works
out-of-the-box with: OpenBSD 4.0, Dragonfly BSD 1.8.1, FreeBSD 6.2, PC-BSD
1.3.1, various Linuces, and even with NetBSD Live! 2007 (3.99.7).

dmesg says "pcmcia0: card appears to have bogus CIS", and as I have my
8139-based NIC (rtk0) on PCMCIA, I don't have network under NetBSD!

I don't have a dump_cis, but here's what I have in Linux for the pcmcia card:
Texas Instruments|PCI1420 PC Card Controller [BRIDGE_CARDBUS] (vendor:104c
device:ac51 subv:1c00 subd:0000)
Texas Instruments|PCI1420 PC Card Controller [BRIDGE_CARDBUS] (vendor:104c
device:ac51 subv:2400 subd:0000)

Any idea?

Thx,
R-C
