A rough translation of Warner's comment is, "Provide all the detail you
are capable of when requesting help, or don't bother at all." That, and
"When requesting help, use the appropriate mailing lists," eg, complaining
about some window and sounds is probably not a good choice on a list about
FreeBSD and mobile devices, which tends to concentrate more on hardware
support and related issues.

A new kernel I built for my laptop a Dell Latitude CPxJ just freezes on reboot
and won't go any further.  The message it stops at is the following

ppi0: <Parallel I/O> on ppbus0.  

After that it just hangs there until I power off.  I then reboot and use
the GENERIC kernel which works fine.

Any ideas?

thanks,

Brian,

Back off to Oct 9, 2000 kernel or so.  The CW of the terminal room is
that something broke after that.  We'e seen lots of hangs when people
insert a plain old ed on oct 11-14 kernels and none on oct 9th.
Although Brian Sommers swears that his oct 11 kernel works.  Lots of
nasty interrupt changes have happened lately (spl -> mutex) so caution
is advised.

I have had a similar problem on a Dell Lattitude CPx, a ThinkPad 570X, and
a Gateway Solo 3150 when I attempt to put the pcic0 intreface in polling
mode via the (now recommended in the 4_1_1_STABLE 'GENERIC'): 

device          pcic0   at isa? irq 0 port 0x3e0 iomem 0xd0000

instead assign a specifc IRQ like: 

device          pcic0   at isa? irq 10 port 0x3e0 iomem 0xd0000

My understanding of the actual PC IRQ architecture is somewhat fuzzy so I
have not really tried to track down what is happening, but I do get the
same symptoms as you are describing (a complete lockup).

Can anyone send me their experiences (success, failures) on using FreeBSD 
on the recent IBM Thinkpad models T21 and A21 (A21m,A21p) ? We are looking 
to purchase new laptops and FreeBSD support is an important feature.

I'm looking for things such as display (XFree86 server), pcmcia, network, 
APM, sound, modem. Sound and modem have been quite problematic (read: 
non-functional) on my current Compaq 1598 and I hope to get those working 
on my future laptop.

I will summarize the feedback I get to the list.

Tks.
Florent.

Well, I got a ThinkPad A20p.

I just got this laptop, so I havent had much time to play with it (since
I am here at BSDcon), but so far I run FreeBSD 4.1.1-STABLE and it alls
works _except_ X and sound :-)

It seems I need XFree86 from CVS, but that doesnt compile... Well I
guess I will soon find the time to dig in to it.

Heh.  Actually, try disabling the sio device.  My Inspiron is booting
fine here:

FreeBSD laptop.baldwin.cx 5.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 5.0-CURRENT #76: Wed Oct 11
18:51:28 PDT 2000     john@laptop.baldwin.cx:/usr/src/sys/compile/LAPTOP  i386

However, I have a quad xeon here in the office that hangs while probing
a sio device via the PnPBIOS probes  (it hangs during sioprobe()).

See my message a week or so ago that outlined what to do to use the
XFree86-4-server port along with a cvsup'ed /usr/xsrc to compile an
X server from CVS using the port.  Also, what sound chip do you have?
The support for the ESS Maestro chips was just backported to -stable
after 4.1.1.

After upgrading my Sprint cell phone software, my BIOS for the Thinkpad i
1400, and installing the Sprint software - I couldn't get the serial port to
recognize the phone! Sprint says it's an IBM issue - that the internal modem
and serial port are sharing a ComPort (Com 1 and Com 3) and that I have to
enable Com 2. IBM won't offer any help because the machine is no longer in
warranty - but they hint it is a software issue, and won't tell me which
software to use for the fix, so I'm quite irritated. Do you have any answers
for me? I'd love to learn to do it myself. I have MS Millenium as my OS.
Thank you, Sharon Healy

Hi.
Mobile user

  I created and committed PIOCSRESOURCE ioctl into 5-current and
4-stable.  Now /usr/sbin/pccardd read free resource(io,irq) range
with this ioctl from kernel.

  But I have a problem with IBM ThinkPad600.  ``sio1'' was disabled
in BIOS and irq 3 was free (also not listed in dmesg), I think.  But
I could not use irq 3 for PC-Card with new pccardd.  (Why... Sorry I
did not check in kernel)

  For the present, I want to add -I option, ``Don't get and use a
list of free IRQs from kernel.''..  And also want to add ``ignore
KERN IRQ'' to Select Free IRQ for PC-Card menu in sysinstall for
installation. Original idea was from PAO.

Any comments?

Hi!

I have a PCMCIA radioethernet adapter that has an unusual programming
interface:
instead of having an I/O ports range [for control] and one memory area to
send/receive data it has two memory areas, one for controlling and one for
data itself. As far as I know standard FreeBSD pccard manager doesn't
support such cards directly (I have been playing w/ it for a while :-)) but
I see that in recent PAO3 releases/snapshots there are some significant
changes in the pccard manager code itself and [probably] there are some
handles to map both memory areas simultaneously. Although this code seems
to be for 'CardBus support' w/o mention my case directly. Could anyone tell
me whether I could work w/ this new interface and how I should do this (i.e
what function calls should be performed in the driver to make this work).
Also I need a general (pccard) driver writing info. Any help in this
direction will be thankfully appreciated

Yours sincerely,
     Alexey Morozov

I have searched the mail archives and usenet looking for a definitive
answer as to FreeBSD support of minipci cards, the 3com EL556 in
particular. Noticed a commit on 2000/08/29 by Jon Chen but that's all I
have seen. We just received some shiny new IBM T20's and would like to
avoid the PCMCIA for Ethernet if possible. Has anyone gotten the IBM
option 09N9774 card to work? How about the modem on the above card, is
it host controlled or hardware based? I dissected the windows driver
disk supplied by IBM and I saw no tell tale .vxd files I am accustomed
to seeing for winmodem devices.

the freshmen laptop this year at RPI is the T20, and we've had quite a
few people running it in a dual boot config just fine.  i know jon had
to do some funky things to get the ethernet to work, since IBM shipped
RPI some weird ass 3com ethernet card nobody else had ever heard of, but
those changes have been committed, so they should just work.  if you've
got the same ethernet the rest of the T20's have, i think it'll just
work.  no idea about the modem.  sorry i can't be more specific, but i
don't actually have one of these machines, i just know people who do.

oh, and i think jon also made some changes to get the x server working
well.  id on't know if those have been rolled in yet.  there is a iso
image with all the changes we made hear at rpi that you can download
from this url:

ftp://ftp.acm.rpi.edu/pub/unix-on-laptops/2000-2001-ThinkpadT20/T20-2a.iso

(i think that's the right url.  i may have copied it wrong)

good luck.

I have compiled APM into my kernel on my IBM ThinkPad 600E running FreeBSD
4.1.1 using the following line:

device          apm0    at nexus? flags 0x20 # Advanced Power Management

In /dev my apm devices are thus:

   0 crw-rw-r--   1 root     operator  39,   0 Oct 12 17:57 apm
   0 crw-rw----   1 root     operator  39,   8 Oct 12 19:01 apmctl

Yet when I type apm as a normal user or as root I get the following:

For the T series, also note that FreeBSD does not work with sound (same
chip as the A series), and X does not work out of the box (it uses a
Salvage IX chipset, unlike the A series which uses some ATI).  I have,
however, gotten X to work find on it with some patches.  I'll see if they
can be put into ports after I package it up and make sure it's not breaking
anything else.

FYI, the changes to get this card working was committed shortly before
4.1.1, so FreeBSD 4.1.1 and later will wouk with the ethernet out of the
box.  As for the modem port, that's one of those winmodem-ish devices and
is not supported.  Actually, I'm not *sure* it's a winmodem, but glanced at
it and assumed it was.  Maybe I can take another look when I get my hands
on one, but in either case, there is no support currently.

Slightly OT for this thread, but since you mentioned S3 - does
anybody know if S3 support in XFree4 will get any better in the near
future (http://www.xfree86.org/4.0.1/Status27.html#27) ?

mobile,

I looking for a good wireless product for desktop machines that can run
FreeBSD (or NetBSD, OpenBSD, Linux, etc).  My situtation is that I live in
an apartment building and one of my neighbors has DSL.  It makes more
sense for me to not get DSL myself, since I will be moving in 7 months
or so and the setup fee for DSL is $300, while paying $40 per month.  I
can easily get on his network if I can somehow bridge our two networks.
He has a spare machine that I can use as a router, I just need to set it
up for him. I've set up routers before using FreeBSD, however this time it
will have to be wireless.  Since the machine that I'd like to use as a
router is a desktop machine, the wireless card would need to be PCI or
ISA.

I began researching different wireless solutions.  I found Lucent WaveLAN,
which is essentially just a PCMCIA card mounted onto a PCI or ISA adapter.
This would be fine, except for the fact that the prices of these cards are
still quite high.  The PCMCIA card is $180 retail, and I was unable to
find a place that sells the adapters online, but I think it is around $60.
If I get it used, I might be able to get it for $150 for the PCMCIA and
$50 for the adapter.  This is around $200 for each side of the "bridge"
between our two networks.  $400 seems like just two much.

I was looking at alternatives, and I found HomeFree, which seems like it
is exactly what I would need, however it only supports windows.  Speed is
not an issue here, since I am using it only to share a DSL line.
Encryption isn't really an issue at all too.  Price is really more
important.

Wow, I wrote a lot. :)  Basically what I am looking for is an affordable
wireless point to point solution, and if there isn't any, then feedback as
to what I should buy and where I should buy the lucent wavelan products to
get the best price.

thanks,

mohan

The lucent wavelan cards are the bext thing around for multi-system
support.

You can buy cheaper ISA adaptors (I'm afraid I don't have any up to
date pointers, though), and you can use silver cards if you don't care
about encryption which are cheaper.

Don't get the PCI card, it doesn't currently work with freebsd.  If
you can find a dirt cheap laptop that has two pcmcia slots, you could
use that (this is what I did until I bought an airport, recently).

I've seen airports go on ebay for under $300 (their retail cost).  If
you're associated with a university you can get airport base stations
from apple with their educational discount ($20 off, I think).

I've had good luck with cdw.com (when they say next day, they mean it
and I like their support) too although the prices are a little higher,
they have no "processing fee" like 942wavelan.


On a related note, I recently looked at a lucent RG-1000 base station.
Don't buy them - it's the same hardware as an airport in an ugly case
for more money and the official software has fewer configuration
options (it doesn't let you change the SNMP community string, for
example).

If you end up with one, you can treat it like an airport with the Java
configurator and using the default SNMP c.s. of "public".  It messes
with the first 6 characters of the network name, though.

That's because you're connected to line power.

It's 100% charged, and based on the existing load on your computer, it
will last indefinitely since no battery power is being used. :)

	Anyone know of a way to get the system time to update itself after
the machine comes out of power saving mode? I've lost about 3 days on my
laptop now. I can change it manaully... prefer to let the system do it
automatically. :)

Now that explains why my laptop keeps losing time so badly. ;)
I hadn't thought of that.

On my servers I run ntpdate and connect to a time server that is local and
accepts anonymous connections (most universities run them -- there is a list
somewhere do a search on time servers).

I just set this up as a cron job.  The problem with a laptop is what time 
can
you run the cron job what you know it will be connected to the internet.

If you wanted to be really keen you could right a cron script that checks 
if
you are connected and if not delays itself for awhile.

Sound like too much work for me.  I just run ntpdate from the command line
periodically.

Hi,

This looks like a great price.  Anyone know if this adapter and card
are supported under FreeBSD?

Now I got X working, I used XFree86 from CVS and had to patch it a bit
to compile but it works great now :-)

Now all I want is sound.

The problem is that xntpd will probably have lost enough time (and its
connections) to stop wanting to update the clock as the difference is too
great.

A cron-launched ntpdate is probably a better idea (or launch ntpdate from an
apm resume script, which is neater but assumes you are connected to the net
when you come out of suspend).

Put one in pccardd.conf and one in apmd.conf. =20

Another thing to check is John Heidemann's lcron, although I don't
believe he has it set up to handle FreeBSD yet.  It's at

[Apologies to those of you who get more than one copy of this.]

FYI, I have just written up a web page that describes how a Unix computer 
(especially, FreeBSD or Linux) can be set up as an 802.11 wireless LAN base 
station (running in IBSS mode).

         <http://www.live.com/wireless/unix-base-station.html>

Much of this stuff is common knowledge, and has been discussed on these 
lists before, but I hadn't seen it all written down in one place.

         Ross.

This is an old thread from the archive, but I seem to be dredging up the
issue IRL, so I thought I'd pass along some additional information.

I just killed a ThinkPad A20p by installing 4.1-RELEASE. Apparently IBM allows
for boot sector programs of a certain size, i.e. "LILO-sized". After that, the
BIOS stores power management information ON THE BOOT SECTOR. If the BIOS finds
unpalatable information in that location (presumably whatever FreeBSD puts 
there),
then it gets very confused:

  - can't boot alternate devices (floppy, CD, or even an UltraBay HD)
  - can't run the BIOS config
  - loops on the "ThinkPad" start-up screen

Remove the HD, and the system boots; insert the HD and it's very dead.

The only way out is to wipe the boot sector, and you can't do it on any of
this generation ThinkPad (A20, T20, etc). You can on a 600, or probably some
other flavors of older ThinkPad, or any other computer where they aren't
stupid enough to store BIOS information on the boot sector.

Not having access to a TP600, I'm waiting for a HD swap from IBM. The support
guy said that this was just referred to engineering as a problem, so hopefully
a future BIOS update will fix it. In the mean time, the FreeBSD loader is not
an option for these 'Pads. Their current company line is a very simplistic
"Linux supported -- FreeBSD not supported". If LILO gets any bigger, I think
they'll have to amend that statement.

It's really funny: the IBM support tech started the call smugly enough with
"No, this isn't like some *Compaq* where they store BIOS software on the
hard drive"... :-) Turns out, it's exactly like that.  :-(

  /// Rob

P.S. BTW, this was my second support call. The first guy said flatly
      "UNIX is not supported on IBM ThinkPads". He stuck to this position
      even after I pointed out that IBM *ships* ThinkPads with Linux on them.
      Hung up. Called again. Got a smart guy. Life goes on.

This has been discussed by several people in the terminal room here at 
BSDcon, and the consensus there was that the issue is actually that the 
TP BIOS doesn't like the 'active' flag being set on any partition.  The 
reporter further claimed that they'd "worked" around it by powering up 
and then inserting the drive at a later stage.

I have a Cabletron/Lucent "Access Point" base station and recently
purchased a Cisco (Aironet) 342 (128 bit encryption) PC card.  My base 
station has a Lucent/Orinoco Gold card.

I've been trying to get the encryption working between these two
systems without any luck.  I couldn't even get the Cisco card working
with the Lucent card when the Cisco card was running under Windows95,
much less under FreeBSD!

I finally have it working!  Here's the deal:

I, of course, rebuilt my kernel with Doug Ambrisko's changes along
with rebuilding "ancontrol" with his changes to support WEP.  I have
set a 26 hex digit encryption key on the base station as "key 1" and
told it to use "key 1" as the transmit key.  I set the base station to 
use encryption, and *not* to allow unencrypted data (this is
important).  I then configured my laptop with something like:
	ancontrol -i an0 -n home
	ancontrol -i an0 -o 1
	ancontrol -i an0 -v 0 -k 0x12345678901234567890123456
	ancontrol -i an0 -K 2
	ancontrol -i an0 -W 1
and it all worked just fine!

It has been already stated here that you must have the *same* keys
defined the same for *all* keys on both sides.  I didn't have any
other, unused, keys defined, so I can't say if that would have stopped 
it from working or not.  It has also been stated that the ancontrol
program always sets the last key programmed as the "transmit key".
Also, key "0" for ancontrol corresponds to key "1" on the base
station.

The important change I finally tried which made things work was to
program the base station to "not allow unencrypted data".  When I
programmed this, and restarted the base station, the encryption worked
just fine!

I hope this helps someone.  I couldn't find any documentation on this
anywhere on the net.

Joseph,

I am running 4.1.1-RELEASE and have a Maestro 2E PCI soundcard on my
laptop. I went to you web site and looked at your kernel config file. All
you need is:

device	pcm

????

Is that it? Mine doesn't seem to be working yet with that. Is there
anything else I need to try? 

Thanks,
Gabriel

Please note that Maestro 2E support was added to -stable on October 6
(4.1.1-RELEASE was released in September).  You may either:

1) Rebuild your system with sources after October 6
2) Install a snapshot built after October 6
3) Wait until 4.2-RELEASE is out (around November 15)

4.1.1-RELEASE does not support the Maestro-2E. You'll need to update
your system to 4.1.1-STABLE as of Oct 5, 5:30 UTC or later.

To get it linked in your kernel, /sys/conf/files should be modified, too.
Say:
 dev/sound/pci/es137x.c	optional pcm pci
+dev/sound/pci/maestro.c	optional pcm pci
 dev/sound/pci/neomagic.c	optional pcm pci

Finally,
# cd /sys/dev/sound/pci
# ln -s /path/to/maestro/*.[ch] .

Then config && make depend && make.

Further info & newer version WERE available at
http://access.cent.saitama-u.ac.jp/~taku/freebsd/maestro/newpcm/
but now they aren't due to server's HDD crash :-(
Currently they are available via this mirror site:
http://www.edu.ics.saitama-u.ac.jp/~j9960yt/mirror/freebsd-newpcm/

Virtually yours,

Since I have this Cardbus card burning a hole in my laptop, I thought I'd try
Jonathan Chen's new cardbus code to see what happens.

My machine is an HP Omnibook 4150, and I'm trying to use a 3com 3CXFEM656C
multifunction card.

Results are, shall we say, mixed. The cardbus bridge is probed, and some
information is read back from the card, but thats' about it. Somewhat
disturbing is the following lines in the dmesg:

pccbb0: Cannot attach pccard bus!

Interestingly enough, when I boot the laptop into Win2k, it complains
miserably that it cant allocate resources for the card.

Attached is a full dmesg output and kernel config for your perusing pleasure.
I know that i havent compiled in xl support, but thats was mostly on the basis
of I'm pretty sure that the pci device id's for the 656 prolly arent in there,
and I was hoping to be able to do something like pciconf -l once I booted up
to grab them.

Anyone have any suggestions?

josh

I am missing something obvious and need another pair of eyes
to point out what that is.

I am attempting to a get a Linksys PCMCIA card and running
with a Dell Insipron 7500 and FreeBSD 4.1.

When the system boots, I get the following message:

D'oh.

This is what I get for hitting send 5 minutes before a brain-flash hits.

I added the appropriate vendor/device ID's to if_xl.c, and now I get:

xl0: <3Com 3c656C Fast Etherlink XL> port 0x2000-0x20ff mem
0x18022200-0x180222ff,0x18022100-0x1802217f,0x18040000-0x1805ffff,0x18022080-0x180220ff,0x18022000-0x1802207f
irq 11 at device 0.0 on cardbus1
xl0: Ethernet address: ff:ff:00:50:ff:ff
xl0: no PHY found!

Obviously, it cant grope around in the EEPROM properly for the various chunks
of information. I suppose its time to go hunt down a linux driver, and see
what they're doing.

I recovered a system recently on which the 'booteasy' boot sector had gotten clobbered.
Rewriting the boot0 file, I noticed it is 1024 and not 512 bytes - the 2nd sector on the
disk is used as well as the 1st. That explains both the above remarks.
I'd guess LILO's boot block is one sector long.

Do you have the ed0 driver in your kernel?
Did you disable it in /boot/kernel.conf?

Hi,
I have an IBM Thinkpad I series laptop, as far as I can tell
it has a O2Micro OZ6832/6833 CardBus Controller...
FreeBSD dosent detect this on boot and I cant get any PC-Card
devices to work, I am wondering if FreeBSD supports this
controller?

Thanks!

CardBus isn't support yet, but from my understanding it is getting
close...  The last I heard the hope was it would come out sometime
around BSDCon.  I'm looking forward to it too.

I'm trying to get an answer from our engineers on this issue. 

In the meantime, I'm constantly getting "an0: device timeout".  It
works perfectly for a number of hours and then suddenly stops and gets 
the "device timeout" message.  Then, after a while of pinging the
local gateway with over 2-3 seconds(!) RTT, it suddenly settles back
down and works fine for a while.

Anyone else seeing this?

I recall reports from someone that has seen it a fair amount on a PCI

and that's all I have.  We also have a bunch of people using the PCMCIA 
driver at work.

I may try to look at that some more.  I use it for hours at a time without 
that issue.  Maybe it's time to look at the driver with more detail.  I've 
found a bunch of bugs in and fixed the ones I've stumbled across.

According to the linux driver (on scyld somewhere. the url temporarily escapes
me) the modem part is a winmodem.

> Bit it looks like the card isn't really being enabled properly from
> the dmesg that you sent.

How much of that is related to me not kldloading if_xl (in the original
email). See the followup to myself for what happens when I have if_xl
kldloaded.

I added the following lines to xl_attach():

   if (pci_get_device(dev) == TC_DEVICEID_HURRICANE_656C)
      sc->xl_flags |= XL_FLAG_EEPROM_OFFSET_30 | XL_FLAG_8BITROM |
                      XL_FLAG_FUNCREG | XL_FLAG_PHYOK |
                      XL_FLAG_INVERT_MII_PWR;

based on my reading of the rest of if_xl.c and glancing at the linux driver,
but it still spits out a bogus station address.

	I believe others have already mentioned this but the first thing
to look at would be making sure you're updated on -stable.  The other
thing you need to do after getting pcm in your kernel (and booting the new
kernel) is to run 'sh /dev/MAKEDEV snd0' as root.

This is good news.  Could someone give me some pointers on how to get
it?  I'm running 4.1 stable, would it be easier for me to just install
current?

The problem was in fact a resource allocation problem on jhb's laptop, and
I have found a workaround.  I will be committing that, device ids for the
3c656 and a bunch of other minor fixes when I get home this weekend.

It seems to me that the changes you posted for the 656C will work (similar
changes made by me worked on a 656C).  You may want to change the 
start values at the end of sys/dev/cardbusvar.h  to see if this is a
resource problem.

If you really must stay with -current and have cardbus, you can try a
patchkit at ftp://ftp.spock.org/pub/newcard/newcard.tar.gz -- Note that is
is UNSUPPORT OLD BUGGY CODE and has bugs I know about but has no intention
to fix; use it at your own peril.  It's simply too much work to track the
changes on -current and backport it to -stable at this stage of
development.  If you need cardbus, run -current.

Hello,

I see that "LINKSYS EtherFast 10/100" is supported by PAO.
But Linksys offers at least 4 such cards:

PCMPC100 - EtherFast 10/100 PCMCIA Card
http://www.linksys.com/products/product.asp?prid=41&grid=11

PCM100 - EtherFast 10/100 Integrated PC Card
http://www.linksys.com/products/product.asp?prid=100&grid=11

PCM200 - Etherfast 10/100 32-Bit Integrated CardBus PC Card
http://www.linksys.com/products/product.asp?prid=136&grid=11

PCMPC200 - EtherFast 10/100 CardBus PC Card
http://www.linksys.com/products/product.asp?prid=29&grid=11

Does FreeBSD support all or only some of them?

Please cc: me your reply.

Thanks,
Alex

This would be interesting as we haven't figured out how to put the Lucent
cards into IBSS mode.

Um, ignore that. :-)  (IBSS != BSS)

Hello,

Will the following configuration work with FreeBSD:



PCMPC100 - EtherFast 10/100 PCMCIA Card
http://www.linksys.com/products/product.asp?prid=41&grid=11
  or 
PCM100 - EtherFast 10/100 Integrated PC Card
http://www.linksys.com/products/product.asp?prid=100&grid=11
     plus
Type I/II/III CardBus PCMCIA 2.1 on IBM ThinkPad 1161260
http://commerce.www.ibm.com/cgi-bin/ncommerce/ProductDisplay?prmenbr=1&prnbr=1161260&cntry=840&lang=en_US&cntrfnbr=1



I know that CardBus itself is not supported, but I have seen notices in
maillists that PCcard adapters work with CardBus in 16bit mode.
Is it the case?

Please cc: me your reply.

Thanks a lot,
Alex

OK.  It looks like we have cardbus working on most laptops.  I'm
currently coming in via the 3C575BT card.  At BSDcon we found that the
following cards worked:
	3C575[CB][CT]
	Xircom cards (and clones: IBM and Intel)
	3c656 (no modem)
	Dlink generic card

There are no modems working right now.  Most of them are win modems,
but there are some drivers out there for them of unknown quality that
haven't been ported to FreeBSD.

Some laptops don't work.  There are resource allocation issues that
need to be addressed.  The Dell 5000e is one of the bad ones, iirc.  I
may need to go buy one of those bad boys.  We don't have a list of
working/broken laptops at this time.

16-bit cards don't work yet.  I've not had time to debug this
completely yet.  I've cleaned it up, but still need to dig deeper.

scsi cards don't work yet.  I talked to Justin about this.  He has
access to code that brings the chips out of power saving mode so that
the SBCs are available.

Generally speaking, to port to cardbus, you need to add 1 line to most
pci drivers since our card bus code emulates a pci bus very well.
Many drivers need to be taught to cope with detaching properly as
well.  In addition, many drivers will need to have some chip specific
tweaking due to errata that apply only to cardbus silicon or the
manner that the cardbus implementation differs slightly from other
cards supported by the driver.

A big thanks to Jonathan Chen for his excellent work.  The code is
mostly stable, but there are still issues.  It should be considered
advanced alpha or early beta until we get more experience with this
code and fix the issues that invariably come up when laptop hardware
gets into the loop.

It will not be available in -stable for some time, if ever.  My palns
are to get the 16-bit code working, firm up the issues between now and
then and then throw the switch over from OLDCARD to NEWCARD by
default.  We need an devd infrastructure in place as well.  No clue
how long all this will take :-)

Warner
