The reason I didn't move the old ids wholesale is that the old system matched against the vendor id (which is bogus for multifunction cards). The new system matches with the logical device id which is often different from the vendor id. Some simple single function cards use the same id for both (as yours does) but I can't tell this without seeing the pnpinfo output. > > Now that we can't use the pnp command from 'boot -c', what > has (if anything) replaced it?

The pnp command should no longer be needed (crossed fingers) since the new code automatically detects devices and assigns resources to them. -- Doug Rabson Mail: dfr@nlsystems.com Nonlinear Systems Ltd.
