The pccard stuff is getting into better shape in -current. I just sent a patch to Poul which allows it to power-on all 4 PC-Card's I have in my possesion on my IBM ThinkPad. However, we still need work in the area of new drivers, but recently the 'BSD-nomad' group in Japan posted something regarding progress they've made with a bunch of new drivers, so things are happening. In the meantime, we can always use more folks getting their hands dirty in the code, so if you want to help please feel free to dive in. Nate
