Be that as it may, it is a huge improvement today over what it was
a month ago. Thanks!!

Yes.  I'm working on porting the newconfig based pccard/cardbus code
to -current.  zp is evil and will die.

The current pccard code is evil and must die.

PCMCIA drivers

[Adam Wight]

I just started hacking the zp driver to support the 3Com 3C562
dual-function ether/modem card, and I wanted to make sure I'm not
duplicating effort.  While I'm at it, there are two significant design
issues that I could use input on:

First, the current zp driver cannot be configured if the pccard services
are being used, since it uses its own pccard code.  Very Bad.

Then, the PCMCIA model that we use now makes it impossible to use both
functions of a doubly useful card.  This too is Very Bad.

Is anyone addressing these problems?
