The correct solution is to generalise the allocation of I/O resources for pccards such that they are dynamically sought and allocated. Using the CIS tuples in the card is IMHO an error. Tatsumi-san - I will be in Japan from May 2nd to about the 16th or so. I would very much like to meet with you and discuss these and other related issues at considerable length, perhaps also with other PAO contributors if any are interested. Is this possible? If anyone else wants to participate, please contact me off the list over the next few days and I will try to coordinate some meetings. -- \\ Sometimes you're ahead, \\ Mike Smith \\ sometimes you're behind. \\ mike@smith.net.au \\ The race is long, and in the \\ msmith@freebsd.org \\ end it's only with yourself. \\ msmith@cdrom.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
