Sure, but you need to choose the correct index which corresponds to sio2, and a supported interrupt. >I guess, then sio2 must be > configured in the kernel.

Naw, the pccard systsem will do the right thing w/regard to using the interrupt. The only thing that matters is the port. > Would it be ok if the pccardd chooses another irq from the > resource pool which was not specified by the kernel configuration? Sure. Nate
