Huh? I was the one who stated what was wrong with the current PCCARD code, as well as with PAO. I also spent about 18 months doing the laptop support for FreeBSD, as well as rewrote most of the APM code. I also was the first person to support working suspend/removal in FreeBSD, with or without PAO. I take offense that you seem to be seeing things one-sided, but maybe I'm taking it too personally. In any case, my opinions are not without technical merit. To anyone who thinks the PAO good is the greatest things since sliced bread, I challenge you to actually look at the patches and tell me again why you consider the current implementation in PAO a good thing? If you aren't a programmer or technical person, then you have very little to say. Nate To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
