NOTE: PCMCIA I, II, and/or III refers to the physical size of the card, not the protocol to the card. We are using the PCMCIA 2.01 spec (also known as the JEDEC 4.1 spec). An io card must conform to the PCMCIA 2.00 spec or later. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- QNX driver: Pcmcia.365sl PCMCIA server for Intel 82365SL and 82365SL DF PCMCIA server for Vadem VG365/465/468/469 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- QNX driver: Pcmcia.cirrus PCMCIA server for Cirrus CL-PD67xx -------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- QNX driver: Pcmcia.generic PCMCIA server for chipsets above with added support for CL6729 PCI/PCMCIA PCMCIA server for Cirrus CL-PD6832 (used by customer in legacy mode). -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ***BETA SOFTWARE*** There is a beta version of the Pcmcia.generic driver which has added support for TEXAS INSTRUMENTS Pcmcia controller with 1031, 1131, 1250, and other chipsets(contact QNX Technical Support for information on other chipsets currently supported). If you have any problems with this software, please report them to the "beta.qnx424" conference on QUICS (qnx.com or 613-591-0934). To obtain this software you must join the beta. To apply to join the 424/425 beta send an email request to beta@qnx.com. Once you are registered you will be able to download Pcmcia.generic from the directory "/updates/beta.qnx424/Alpha" on QUICS. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- QNX driver: Pcmcia.generic PCMCIA server for chipsets above with added support for CL6729 PCI/PCMCIA and TI 1031/1131/1250 PCMCIA. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- This section describes some pcmcia cards that we have tested. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- manufacturer: Intel MODEM 2400: Many modem manufacturers simply copied the CIS from the original Intel PCMCIA modem, thus this entry may correspond to several different modems.
