The detection of card type (16 vs 32 bit, and 3v versus 5v) is supposed to be done in the bridge hardware; there is no software intervention in the process. A damaged connector could make it misbehave. -- Dave _______________________________________________ Linux-hotplug-devel mailing list http://linux-hotplug.sourceforge.net Linux-hotplug-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-hotplug-devel
