I know for sure that CL-PD6729 (I have 29 on my laptop) was not supported on -current at the beginning of this year. Infact, I wrote a little patch to enable it, but I was having lot of problems at reboot times (after shutdown -r): it basically works, but the kernel paniced on each even reboot (odd ones were fine). I really don't know what caused that, as I'm not able to understand FreeBSD internals at that level. Anyway, I'm running with the patch since January on -current, and I had no problems but the shutdown -r one. I don't know if this is still applicable (I *never* reboot my laptop, it just sleeps for days or weeks in hibernate mode :-) > pcic0 <Cirrus Logic PD6729/6730 PC-Card Controller> rev 254 int a irq ?? > on pci0:19:0 That's the beast... > Thanks.
