apm this and that

["Federico G. Schwindt" <fgsch@olimpo.com.br>]

Hello,

   I've running 2.3 on my notebook, TI Extensa 390, with the GENERIC kernel 
and I have a few questions regarding apm and pcmcia support.    When I 
reboot my machine I got this:

	apm at bios0 function 0x15 not configured

   What it means?    If I try to run the apm daemon I got a similar error:

	apmd: cannot open device file `/dev/apmctl': Device not configured

   I haven't find any kind of info about this (maybe is in the missing 
apm(4) manpage?).

   For the pcmcia part I got this:

   vendor "Texas Instruments", unknown product 0xac16 (class bridge, 
subclass CardBus, rev 0x02) at pci0 dev 5 function 0 not configured

   Again, what it means? What should I see if a pcmcia controller is 
detected in my notebook?

   There are a couple of missing files related to the pcmcia documentation:

   config_slot(8), pcmcia(4)

   And the manpage for pcmciad isn't clear enough for me.
   What should I have to put in /etc/pcmciad.conf? Just the name of device 
or the complete path for it?
   Best regards,

   Federico Schwindt.-
