Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed Sender: owner-freebsd-mobile@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org I recently has 3.5-PAO running on a Toshiba Libretto 70CT. After reading on the PAO page that PAO is now integrated into RELENG_4 and ".", I upgraded to 4.2 Release. I have a 3C589D working, but the PCMCIA floppy drive and possibly some expansion port features may not be supported any more. The PAO PCMCIA supported devices list is quite good (especially with my wacky little Toshiba devices :-); PCMCIA in the FreeBSD handbook's supported hardware list (and pccard.conf.sample) is much more sparse. So, what is the status of the merge? If I go to STABLE or CURRENT will I get the whole of PAO, or am I recklessly upgrading chasing after code that's not there yet? Or was the package all merged in by 4.2 Release, and I might have some potential breakage issues? If it gets fully integrated, it seems like a real boon to the hardware compatibility list.
