Date: Mon, 06 Nov 1995 17:10:16 +0100 Message-ID: <3828.815674216@critter.tfs.com> From: Poul-Henning Kamp Sender: owner-hackers@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk I'm about to embark on the last leg of the quest to decent PCMCIA support. Thanks to Andrew McRae we have the framework, now we just need to handle all the bits correctly. This is relatively trivial, if it werent for the fact that nobody does things the same way as anybody else in the PCMCIA business. My problem right now is that I only have two cards to test with, a modem card and an ethernet card. Personally, I don't need more than those two cards, but they have already proven to be far to unrepresentative of the cards on the market to be of any significant value as a test base for our code. If you have any PCMCIA cards lying around that you don't use, I'd be very happy if you would donate them to the FreeBSD project to form a test collection for the PCMCIA code. This collection of cards will remain in custody of the FreeBSD project, one way or another, so that we have a means for regression testing. Donors will of course be listed in the "FreeBSD HW contributors" list. (Of course if you have a particular card you are ancious to see supported, this is also a very good way to make it more likely to happen :-) If you cannot spare the card permanently, I may still be interested in borrowing it for a period for testing.
