Well, while now, yes, since I'm not at home. I had to set up zip-proxy on my home bsd-based serve to make it just a bit usable. I'll be back to my fast internet connection in two days or so, and I'll post the stuff as soon as I get there.

CONFIG_PCIEPORTBUS=y
CONFIG_HOTPLUG_PCI_PCIE=m
CONFIG_PCIEAER=y

in the .config you provided the only thing associated to PCIExpress
Dunno if this will help you for my CFcard reader(exprescard)

Those are the only options in the kernel config available for expresscard support... if there is something you need in the config it is not for expresscard support. I dug around in my last config and there are a few card reader modules I left out.... Since the expresscard you are trying to get to work is a CF reader, it's probably actually a USB interface and will be treated like a USB device. If you give the make/model # I can try and figure out what chipset it is and point you in the right direction. It might be a module in the config or it could be something else.

Edit: do a lsusb and it should show up... hopefully it has some clues as to the chipset it's using

I got it off of ebay I thinks it a generic card reader from what I see it's called R Cube Station

http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?...m=260325346103

I can download the drivers for Windows/Mac(but even they work stand alone: without the drivers)
Drivers: http://www.maxorigin.com/rcubestatio...CF_express.rar

lsusb:

Bus 005 Device 002: ID 04f2:b071 Chicony Electronics Co., Ltd

which I don't see anything out of the ordanary except maybe the Chicony


EDIT: I went into windows(i know the root of all evil etc) went to the device manager and it's telling me is a SCSI drive O_o(JMCR CF SCSI Disk Device)

It's the webcam. What does lspci say? anything in dmesg upon inserting the card?
