Dear Steve:

Thanks to your intense answer. Now I still have one Q left. What do the files named "pcitable" work? In other words, When will the files be used?

Thanks. Steven

As far as I am aware, this is what up2date is supposed to provide,
however, if you want to have custom packages (drivers?) then you may want
to look into something like autorpm (I think it was called this) that was
a small perl script that you could point to a different location (local
package server) to get updates from.

Look at lspci, this should give you detailed information on your PCI
devices, and with the -vv and -x options (lspci -vvx) you should get more
information that you probably need. The manual page may help more (man
lspci)

Otherwise, if you are after information about the PCI standards, then you
may want to search on google for pci standards (or something similar) - if
you are after how PCI works in general then try

HTH,
