The following reply was made to PR kern/95661; it has been noted by GNATS. From: "Brian J. McGovern" <mcgovern@beta.com> To: Jung-uk Kim <jkim@FreeBSD.org> Cc: bug-followup@FreeBSD.org, mcgovern@beta.com, mcgovern@spoon.beta.com Subject: Re: kern/95661: [pci] [patch] pci_pci still not correct for initializing cardbus on HP AMD laptop Date: Wed, 19 Apr 2006 14:26:55 -0400 > This is handled differently in -CURRENT: > > http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sys/dev/pci/pci_pci.c.diff?r1=1.37 &r2=1.38 > > It requires SMBIOS support in loader, which is missing in RELENG_6. > > Jung-uk Kim Agreed, but it works in 6.0 and 6.1. My opinion is that this is a reasonable work around for the 6.x lifecycle until the "stable" tree moves to 7.x, and we get SMBIOS support. I could beg for MFC'ing SMBIOS support, but I think it'd be a much tougher sell, and I doubt I can talk anyone in to it for 6.1. :) -Brianhelp
