DESCRIPTION
NetBSD provides support for the Intel 82365SL, Cirrus Logic PD6710 and PD672x PCMCIA controllers.
For the isa(4) attachment a flags value of 1 can be used to force the use of polling instead of interrupts for card events.
The default configuration of the pcic gives each controller 16 kilobytes of memory, to be shared between slots. Some PC Card devices require
somewhat more memory than this; it may therefore be necessary to adjust the iomem and iosiz parameters of the pcic devices in the kernel con-
fig file to accommodate these cards.

pcic -- PC Card bridge driver
SYNOPSIS
device pcic
device pccard
DESCRIPTION
The pcic driver provides support for older ISA and non-Yenta PCI PC Card bridges. The pcic driver supports most ExCA devices attached to the
ISA bus or PCI devices that do not conform to the Yenta specification.
The following ISA devices, or true clones, are supported in the current code.
Intel i82365SL Step A
Intel i82365SL Step B
Intel i82365SL Step C Intel's original 16-bit PC Card controller.
Intel i82365SL-DF Intel's last version of this device. 3.3V support was added.
VLSI 82C146 An older VLSI part with some issues on some machines.
Cirrus Logic PD-6710
Cirrus Logic PD-6720
Cirrus Logic PD-6722 Cirrus Logic's pcic controller. Compatible with the i82365SL Step C with the addition of a different 3.3V control.
Ricoh RF5C296
Ricoh RF5C396 Ricoh's PC Card bridge chips. These are compatible with the i82365SL Step C, but with yet another different 3.3V con-
trol.
Vadem 365
Vadem 465 Compatible with i82365SL Step C.
Vadem 468
Vadem 469 Like the earlier Vadem models, but with Vadem's own, incompatible, 3.3V control system.
IBM PCIC IBM clone of the original i82365SL part, with its own ID register value. Has no 3.3V ability.
Many other vendors made parts in this arena, but most of them were compatible with one of the above chipsets.
The following PCI pcmcia bridges are supported:
Cirrus Logic PD6729
Cirrus Logic PD6730
O2micro OZ6729
O2micro OZ6730
BUGS
This does not work at all at the moment.

Hi
I recently installed Mandrake 9 on my laptop. It has 2 PCMCIA slots, and in one of them I usually keep one of my network cards (ones an Accton 2216, the other a Surecom EP-427). Under mandrake when my computer started up (and went into runlevel 5) it attempted to start 'network' and then... (2 Replies)
hello mates,
do you know a manufactor for rs232 serial pci cards for the sparc architecture? it seems that there is no original product from sun for that purpose. strange, isn't it?
problem is that i have a V250 with only one db9 rs232 serial port, and i need it for a modem connection, but i also... (1 Reply)
I'm trying to install TL 5200-08 on an AIX 5.2 box and it is failing due to several prereqs. One is devices.pci.77101223.diag 5.2.0.85, but the prereq for this file set is devices.pci.77101223.diag 5.2.0.0 and I can not locate that file set. I can locate devices.pci.77101223.diag 5.2.0.1, but... (1 Reply)
So today I tried to upgrade a customer from a Proliant with an HPSAS controller to an Intel server with a MEGASAS controller.
First, I downloaded the megasas driver from SCO and installed it on the old system.
Then I created a new Microlite Edge emergency boot cd with the new driver on it.
I... (2 Replies)
