Regarding Automatic loading of PCMCIA client driver

[kaustav.majumdar at wipro.com]

Hi all,

I had posted a query in this regard a few days ago..... but it seems had
gone unnoticed.....

I want to know that if I want to load the PCMCIA client drivers when the
PC Card will be inserted in the slot
then what are the things I have to do?

According to my understanding:
1. Compiling the driver as a loadable kernel module
2. Edit the /etc/pcmcia/config file to add an entry for the Card. (Match
can be done with manf_id or version)

Another query is that I had seen the some entries in the
/etc/pcmcia/config file which are like:

	device "XXXXXX"
		class "XXXXX"   module "XXXXX"

Can anybody please explain what these entries are and how they are
actually used?

Thanks in advance,

With Regards,
Kaustav Majumdar
