"16 bit" means PCCARD. > "32 bit" means CardBus. so. when i configure the bios to PCIC mode, then i am reincarnating the interface ( and thus, the card ) to appear to be a PCCARD, yes? if this *is* true, then the 4.4-RC5 install should not have paniced when it probed the chip, correct? if, it is not true, then could anybody offer up what it is that i am telling the bios to do when i set the PCIC compatible mode in the bios? sorry for the high density of my skull in this matter :-) -- John L.
