But does it work?
The tqueue.h patch will fix the compile time error, but I would prefer to put that in each .c file, and not in the .h file.
The call to run_sbin_hotplug will not bind any drivers that are already present in the kernel to the new device. It will only call /sbin/hotplug, which is not all that is needed.
What needs to be done is to call the same function that CardBus calls, and remove a lot of the pci device initialization from the compaq (and IBM) pci hotplug drivers.
It's on my list of things to do, but pretty far down, patches gladly accepted :)
thanks,
