For pccard, we don't need a global list of all things (in fact, we don't generate one now). We use it for generation of the id numbers and cis strings. That's its real value. It automatically generates these things and so drivers are able, with a simple macro, to define the card, reguardless of the method needed to pick it. So doing something like that for pccard would be hard. I suspect that usb is similar. Warner To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
