I'm willing to review your probe/attach code (the only parts that ought to know about PCI), if you send me the sources ...

I have prepared slides (in German), which might be easy to translate. I assume you got the PCI standard documents, and you may want to get "PCI System Architecture" from Mindshare Inc. (Addison Wesley) as a good introduction into the concepts of PCI. Regards, STefan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hardware" in the body of the message
