X-BeenThere: freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: Technical Discussions relating to FreeBSD List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 05 Jul 2007 12:55:26 -0000 Dear list sorry I am not sure if I should post to hackers list but I think I should post to a list where people can change FreeBSD distirubtion. It seems old drivers for PCMCIA device are now being replaced, putting either device pcic device card In FreeBSD 6.2 kernel config file would result error in compile. If they are no longer supported, the man page for both pcic and card (they are two different man pages) should be removed. Also pccardc seems to be looking for a device /dev/card0 which doesn't exist, I also occassionally read someone said both pccard_enable="YES" option in rc.conf and pccardd are no longer useful. It's good to remove unusable applications to reduce user confussion. Best Regards Zhang Weiwu
