I'm the maintainer of PC-card package for FreeBSD(the latest release is pccard-test-960328). I want to start "Laptop Survey" project on FreeBSD. Linux has the same survey for long, and I think it is very useful. If you're using FreeBSD on laptop machines, please fill in the form given below and send it to me (Reply-To: hosokawa@mt.cs.keio.ac.jp). I wrote two samples corresponding to my two laptop machines (Digital Hinote and Digital Hinote Ultra). I will publish the result on the Web pages, and incorporate it into our PC-card package. (If you're interested in PC-card (PCMCIA) driver for FreeBSD, detailed information can be found at, http://www.mt.cs.keio.ac.jp/person/hosokawa/freebsd-pcmcia/ If you install this package, please send me the report about it) Thanks. hosokawa ---------------------------------------------------------------------- (requisite) Your Name E-mail address (do not fill it if you don't want to publish it) (requisite) product name of your machine (requisite) CPU type (requisite) Amount of main memory (requisite) Amount of hard disk Version number of BIOS (requisite) Can you installed FreeBSD on this machine? (Ex.: No problem -> OK, Can't install FreeBSD at all -> NG, Special technique or tips are required -> the abstract of your tips) Version number of FreeBSD Version number of pccard-test package (if you're using it) Does APM BIOS driver of FreeBSD works? (Ex.: No problem -> OK, "options FORCE_APM10" was required -> FORCE_APM10, Can't drive APM at all -> NG) Version number of APM BIOS Machine-depend "options" in config file Type of PC-card controller PC-card (PCMCIA) that worked Corresponding entry of /etc/pccard.conf (You can drive the card with default pccard.conf, no field is required) ............ repeats... The Cards that you can't drive, even though README's and pccard.conf says that it works. ............ repeats...
