I'm not sure about PCI. Ok. I'll make the PCI code in -current expect the drivers' attach() functions to return a success indication, but will for now leave the code in 2.2 alone ... Don't know when I'll get around to adding the new PCI probe/attach framework, so don't hold your your breath :) Regards, STefan
