OK. Here's my latest set of diffs. Some of which I'll need to integrate into current still. These patches obvisate the need for users to add -I to the command line. In fact, I've had to disable -I until the folks using pcic-stable.diff.13 or earlier have removed it from their configuration.... These patches will have pccardd always ask the kernel what irq to use. The kernel will now now tell pccardd which irq to use in. This should make these patches much easier to use and to configure. There are two patches. First patch is http://people.freebsd.org/~imp/pcic-stable.diff.14a http://people.freebsd.org/~imp/pcic-stable.diff.14b The first one is the kernel part of the patch, it is relative to src/sys. The second one is pccardd part, and is relative to src/usr.sbin/pccard/pccardd. It is my belief that the new pccardd will work with the old kernel. Please remove the "-I -i xx" from your pccardd_flags in /etc/rc.conf before upgrading to this patch. In an effort to have a certain amount of anti-foot shooting, I've rigged pccardd to ignore -I for now (since its legitimate use is likely to be extremely rare). Future patches may not contain the anti-foot shooting measures :-) This patch also solves the multiple card problem for most laptops. It does for mine. I'll update the pccard status page later.
