PAO support is buggy, FreeBSD APM is > good, and PCCARD support is limited. :) :) :) Why do you think "PAO support is buggy"? Do you read the recent PAO patch? If you found bugs in PAO, please list up them. I can not understand why you dislike PAO so much. o PC-card support of "plain FreeBSD" is limitted. o There are many notebooks which cannot work with "plain" FreeBSD, but works fine with PAO. o There ALREADY exists PAO. So, I think "integrate PAO into FreeBSD -> fix PAO bugs if exist" is EASIER AND FASTER than "ignore PAO and develop FreeBSD."
