Consequently, card descriptions in "/etc/pccard.conf" don't now need to be artificially truncated. I was able to find two such truncated entries, comparing the -current and -stable versions of "/usr/src/etc/pccard.conf.sample": card "3Com" "3C574-TX Fast EtherLink PC Ca" card "Linksys" "Combo PCMCIA EthernetCard (EC" which get corrected to: card "3Com" "3C574-TX Fast EtherLink PC Card" card "Linksys" "Combo PCMCIA EthernetCard (EC2T)" Please let me know if any other entries need to be similarly expanded.
