PCCARDCTL(8)                                                  System Manager's Manual                                                 PCCARDCTL(8)

NAME

       pccardctl - PCMCIA card control utility
       lspcmcia - display extended PCMCIA debugging information

SYNOPSIS

       pccardctl [-V] [-v ...] command [socket]
       lspcmcia [-V] [-v ...] [socket]

DESCRIPTION

       pccardctl is used to monitor and control the state of PCMCIA sockets.  If a socket number is specified, the command will be applied to just
       one socket; otherwise, all sockets will be affected.

       If pccardctl is executed by root, all commands are available.  If it is executed by an unpriviledged user, only the informational  commands
       are accessible.

       lspcmcia is an alias for pccardctl ls, provided for convenience.

COMMANDS

       status
           Display the current socket status flags.

       config
           Display  the socket configuration, including power settings, interrupt and I/O window settings, and configuration registers.  --not yet
           implemented

       ident
           Display card identification information, including product identification strings, manufacturer ID codes, and function ID  codes.   Not
           yet implemented for cardbus cards. Use lspci instead.

       info
           Much  like  the  ident  command, but its output is formatted as a series of Bourne-stype shell variable definitions for use in scripts.
           Not yet implemented for cardbus cards.

       ls  Display extended debugging information about the PCMCIA sockets and devices present in the system.

       suspend
           Shut down and then disable power for a socket.

       resume
           Restore power to a socket, and re-configure for use.

       eject
           Notify all client drivers that this card will be ejected, then cut power to the socket.

       insert
           Notify all client drivers that this card has just been inserted.

OPTIONS

       -V     Show version information and exit.

       -v     Increase the verbosity of the ls command.  Giving this option twice increases verbosity further.
