I'm currently working on a driver for the Lucent WaveLAN/IEEE 802.11 PCMCIA adapter, as part of a project for the COMET lab people here at Columbia. Lucent has a PCMCIA and an "ISA" version of this adapter, however the ISA version is really just a PCMCIA card fitted into an add-in PCMCIA controller card that mounts in an ISA slot (i.e. something that lets you plug PCMCIA devices into a desktop host that doesn't have any built-in PCMCIA slots). This adapter card has a Vadem 469 chip on it which, fortunately, is supported by our current pccard code. The system I'm testing on is running 3.0-RELEASE and I'm reasonably confident my code will work with 3.1-RELEASE too. As it stands now, I can get the card probed and attached when I start pccardd, and everything seems peachy. What I need to know is if anybody has tested the pccard support in 4.0-CURRENT now that all the newbus stuff has been rolled in. If the pccard support for the x86 still works under 'emulation' using an ISA device shim, then that's fine. If not... well, then I suppoose _I'm_ the one who's going to end up testing it. -Bill -- ============================================================================= -Bill Paul (212) 854-6020 | System Manager, Master of Unix-Fu Work: wpaul@ctr.columbia.edu | Center for Telecommunications Research Home: wpaul@skynet.ctr.columbia.edu | Columbia University, New York City ============================================================================= "It is not I who am crazy; it is I who am mad!" - Ren Hoek, "Space Madness" ============================================================================= To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
