// It's probably a bug in your PCIC where it doesn't send interrupts when a
// card is inserted/removed like it's supposed to.  I disabled the
// 'polling' ability in -current a while back so that people who had broken
// hardware would tell me (~ March), and given the lack of feedback I
// assumed that most hardware worked. :)

Is there an option to enable it ?

// The AIC driver doesn't support bus removal, and you aren't running CAM

I never said I was running CAM.  :)  I was just wondering if CAM
would support it.  Maybe the new bus subsystem.

Thanks for your answer,
