Hi,

One of the things PAO hase which the 3.0-RELEASE PCMCIA code does not
have is the
PCIC_IRQ kernel configuration.

With it, it is possible to tell the PCMCIA card controller NOT to
reserve itself an IRQ.
This means no hot swapping of cards, but for my application (embedded
systems) I cannot hot
swap and I do not want an IRQ wasted by the card chipset.

The patch for 3.0-RELEASE is trivial to include the PCIC_IRQ code
(basically it forces a value in the
pcic.c code).

Is someone willing to commit this to -current if I supply the diff.

It will then complete all my PCMCIA needs without needing the full PAO
package.

Bye
