When are these used? It has been my : experience that too often 'broken cards' are in fact not broken, and the : FreeBSD code is broken. Adding workarounds for (potentially) broken : code is not a good fix. Assuming for the moment that pccardd's cis reading is somehow inadequate, I think that this is a good enough fix. Given pccard's timeline, adding a kludge now that is easier than fixing the cis parsing code would be acceptible. I've seen some bad cis flash cards, but they weren't ATA. There are also a few bug fixes in the patch as well... Warner To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
