  Congratulations from h4000 port! ;-).

  And now I get a chance to ask for specifics pondering how we can get
hold of it ;-).

1. How exactly ACX100 is connected in hx4700? On Wiki, was able to
find only mentioning it's on CS5#. In h4000, it is essentally
connected to PCMCIA bus and can be seen with cardctl. Is it the same
for hx4700? (I pray it is.)

2. If so, why hx4700_acx.c doesn't interract with hx4700_pcmcia.c (or
PCMCIA subsyetm in general)? Btw, about hx4700_acx.c - it appears it's
machine-specific code for hx4700, shouldn't it live in it's machine
dir?

3. Is it required to build ACX as module or builtin would work also?

4. What about firmware files? Is it required for driver to work or can
it be satisfied with what's inside cheap (I got it has flash for
that).

5. Can you please provide some trivia of what one can expect on
successful driver load? Should just new network i/f appear immediately
and can be ifupped? Are wirelesstools or something required to make
actual connection?


Thanks!
