NAME
serial_cs - PCMCIA serial port driver SYNOPSIS
insmod serial_cs.o [pc_debug=n] [irq_list=i,j,...] [do_sound=n] DESCRIPTION
Serial_cs is the Card Services driver for all PCMCIA serial devices, including modem cards. When serial_cs is bound to a serial or modem card, it will generally attempt to allocate the first unused serial device for use by the card. The device chosen will be recorded in the kernel log file, and will also be reported to cardmgr(8). The major and minor numbers and device name reported by serial_cs will match the corresponding "dialout" device (/dev/cua#). The new device can be accessed using this device file or the corresponding /dev/ttyS# device. The default serial card setup script will link the dialout device to /dev/modem. PARAMETERS
pc_debug=n Selects the PCMCIA debugging level. This parameter is only available if the module is compiled with debugging enabled. A non-zero value enables debugging. irq_list=i,j,... Specifies the set of interrupts that may be allocated by this driver. do_sound=n A flag specifying if speaker output should be enabled. The default is 1 (true). Set to 0 to disable speaker output.

NAME
ibmtr_cs - IBM Token Ring PCMCIA device driver SYNOPSIS
insmod ibmtr_cs.o [pc_debug=n] [mmiobase=n] [srambase=n] [ringspeed=n] [irq_list=i,j,...] DESCRIPTION
ibmtr_cs is the low-level Card Services driver for the IBM Token Ring network adapter and a few very similar cards. When this driver is attached to a card, it allocates the next available token ring interface (tr0..tr#). This device name will be reported in the kernel log file, and passed on to cardmgr(8). Due to awkward design of the kernel ibmtr driver, the shared packet memory for these cards must be mapped to a memory address below 1MB or 0x100000. The PCMCIA software will attempt to do this automatically, but the automatic algorithm may choose values that conflict with other system devices, so a manual override with the srambase parameter may be required. The memory-mapped IO window generally will not be a problem. PARAMETERS
pc_debug=n Selects the PCMCIA debugging level. This parameter is only available if the module is compiled with debugging enabled. A non-zero value enables debugging. mmiobase=n Specifies a fixed address for the card's memory mapped IO window. The default is to select any available memory window. srambase=n Specifies a fixed address for the card's shared packet memory. The default is to select any available window below 1MB. ringspeed=n Selects the network speed, in mb/sec. Valid values are 4 or 16, and the default is 16. AUTHOR
