It occurs to me that people would want to verify that this list does actually work and that we gain (rather than lose) coverage from it. A sanity test I've run on a couple of machines: % fetch http://pciids.sourceforge.net/v2.2/pci.ids % pciconf -lv > /tmp/pciconflv.old % PCICONF_VENDOR_DATABASE=pci.ids pciconf -lv >/tmp/pciconflv.new % diff -u /tmp/pciconflv.old /tmp/pciconflv.new In all cases I've seen so far, the new list yields better (more correct and up to date) results than the exising list. In no cases has pciconf complained about the new list. - Philip -- Philip Paeps Please don't Cc me, I am [email protected] subscribed to the list. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
