The standing objection is that > some older gccs don't do inline well. That's all true and, in fact, I had run into a compiler problem some time ago. However, even then I was able to simply rearrange my C routine a bit and then the compiler was happy. Having pci-cardbus support on mips is kind of cool. Running wireless cards off of it is even better. Not being able to compile the drivers because of io.h isn't. Pete
