The card is also available in a 16-bit version (it has a PC Card logo on the
back, I don't know if the Cardbus one does or not). It's important to note
that the 575 (not the 574) is CardBus. I used to have one, but
semi-thankfully, it got blown up by lightning and the replacement was 16-bit
and thus usuable with FreeBSD.

If you actually have the 16-bit pccard version, then you need to patch your
driver. I sent in patches that got committed to 4.0, but were basically
replaced a month later by Matt Jacob's massive rework of the entire ep
driver and not MFC'd.

You can pull rev. 1.87 of if_ep.c out of the Attic from cvsweb:

 http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sys/i386/isa/Attic/if_ep.c

And it will drop directly into your tree in /sys/i386/isa. Make sure you
have 1.23.2.1 or later of if_epreg.h.

The only major change of the patch is to hit the card with an offset command
if the no-offset commands don't work. I have no idea what its significance
is other than it's required to make my card work. I can't remember where I
got the basic idea from, it was from PAO I think.
