This doesn't make the laptop actually reboot, but at least the power button works! - Apparently there have been changes in the way the data structures which hook a PCCARD device driver into the startup initialization are defined. Using the macro PCCARD_MODULE() got the Xircom driver going, but I noticed that now the sio driver doesn't register. Can someone familiar with the PCCARD support tell me if I'm missing something? \MikeK Patrick Seal wrote: > > On Thu, 4 Mar 1999, Mike Kephart wrote: > > > Hi, > > > > I have two problems which have shown up after upgrading from > > 3.0-RELEASE to > > 3.1-STABLE (as of 2/3/99 at 18:00 CST).
