Combo cards aren't supported in FreeBSD, with/without PAO. Neither are any 100MB cards, although Hosokawa has been threatening to commit a really slow driver for a couple of weeks now. > :- However, aside from a few minor issues (drivers mostly), the PCCARD > :- support in FreeBSD is getting better than that in PAO. > > And the APM stuff? In 2.2.6? (I'd rather not go to bleeding edge...) The APM stuff in FreeBSD is *better* than in PAO, IMHO. It has been that way for a long time. And, recently (in between 2.2.5 and 2.2.6) the APM/PCCARD integration became usable in FreeBSD. However, I just fixed a couple minor bugs this morming and committed the code to -current. I'll merge it into -stable in a few days if no one notes any bugs. > Anyway, I'll be glad to do the driver work, if it isn't already being > done.
