+.Ss Unconfigured devices
+During autoconfiguration, if a message is displayed saying that your card
+is "not configured" it indicates that there isn't support for your card
+compiled into the kernel.  To fix this problem, it may simply be a matter
+of adding the manufacturer and product IDs to the
+.Tn PCMCIA
+database or adding a front-end attachment to an existing driver.  In
+the latter case, it is normally always necessary to get a dump of the
+CIS table from the card.  You can do this by adding
+.Cd options PCMCIACISDEBUG
+and
+.Cd options PCMCIADEBUG
+into your kernel config file.  Additionally, you will have to patch the
+kernel to enable run-time debugging.  This can be done in the source
+by changing the variables
+.Va pcmcia_debug
+and
+.Va pcmciacis_debug
+to 0xff.  Alternatively, you can patch the same variables at run-time
+using
+.Xr ddb 4 .
+For most drivers you should also consider enabling any driver-specific
+debugging options.
