The old pnp code is fundamentally incompatable with the new pnp code and has gone. Doug's new pnp code is tightly integrated within the isa bus and is rather smart. It will choose it's own non-conflicting addresses for the devices. There isn't much use for the userconfig pnp command as the pnp devices are deactivated during the ISA probes and only switched on when a device claims them, based on their PNP id. Basically this means we've got to pay a lot more attention to the PNP id and compat id's now.
