Purpose

A list of different desktop PCMCIA/Cardbus slots you might find for sale all over the internet. Here as a reference so you can link some random card to the correct slot and vice-versa.

Sources I have still not yet covered

- For Elan P-series PCI card readers based on the Cirrus PD6729 PCI-to-PCMCIA bridge chip, the i82365 driver requires a ```irq_mode=1`” parameter.
- With SCM Microsystems SBP series PCI card readers (which are also being distributed with Lucent WaveLAN IEEE cards), and for the Synchrotech PCM-CR-PC2IF and PCM-CR-PC2IR, it is necessary to specify ```irq_mode=0'' for the i82365` module, to force use of PCI interrupts.
- The PLX Technologies PCI9052 (also sold as the Linksys WDT11) is not a general purpose PCMCIA card reader at all: it is a PCI interface card for use with certain wireless adapters, that makes them look like ordinary PCI devices. These devices are not supported.

IBM

49P4378

R5C522 controller, Cardbus and FireWire controller. Its the same controller used Thinkpad A30p, X30, and some versions of X31 (source).

Tow external FW/1394 6-pin connectors, and one 4-pin internal connector.

Probably an OEM controller used in IBM (pre-Lenovo) desktops cira 2003-2004. Candidates include late-model NetVista (2004), ThinkCentre (A- and M-series), and possibly IntelliStation (type 6221, 6223, or 9228).

Likely not from the POWER-based IntelliStation machines of the period, because the option doesn’t show up in the options list.
