Linux PCMCIA Information Page
Card Services for Linux is a complete PCMCIA support package. It
includes a set of loadable kernel modules that implement a version of
the PCMCIA 2.1 Card Services applications program interface, a set of
client drivers for specific cards, and a card manager daemon that can
respond to card insertion and removal events, loading and unloading
drivers on demand. It supports ``hot swapping'' of PCMCIA cards, so
cards can be inserted and ejected at any time.
The current package supports many ethernet cards, modems and serial
cards, several SCSI adapters, most ATA/IDE devices, and some SRAM and
FLASH memory cards. All the common PCMCIA controllers are supported,
so it should run on just about all Linux-capable laptops.
