Hi,
my laptop has a Mobility Radeon HD 5650. It was previously shown by
lspci as "Radeon HD 5600 Series". It's now even more vague, "AMD
Radeon HD 5000M Series". I remembered there was a way to precise too
vague devices, but didn't remember what. I eventually found that is
the subsystem. So I wanted to submit a new subsystem. It took me about
half an hour to figure out how.
If you're on https://pci-ids.ucw.cz/read/PC/1002/68c1, it's not clear
how to add a subsystem. The link that appears to have worked is called
"Add item". "item" is pretty vague, why not "Add subsystem"?
Once you found that, the field with the Jump button is confusing. I
couldn't submit because I didn't know what to put in the ID field. I
figured it out just as I started to write this email. The subsystem
ID, "1025:033d" in my case, needed to be entered as "ffff ffff" (with
a space, not a colon). Otherwise, the site complains the ID is
invalid. http://pci-ids.ucw.cz/mods/PC/?action=help?help=pci explains
that, but is not directly linked from the subsystem submission form.
It would really help to either:
*clarify the data contribution interface
*offer to submit problems through a bug tracker
*or make it clearer how to reach this mailing list. I'm not even sure
I'm writing to the right address.
I submitted by card here:
http://pci-ids.ucw.cz/read/PC/1002/68c1/1025033d
Again, it's not clear from http://pci-ids.ucw.cz/read/PC/1002/68c1
whether my submission worked. The name is not shown and the entry is
in dark grey, probably because it wasn't approved yet, but I don't see
any explanation of colors.
As of now, this worked. The name now appears, and the item is no longer
in gray. Note that you should receive a mail notification when the item
is approved, if you check the Subscribe checkbox.
