Ya, I heard something about the PD6710. From what I understand, the
chip design was sold Intel.
Anyhow, the guy at Cirrus I was in contact with told me that they had
several thousand CL-PS6700 chips in stock with no buyers! :) Also, our
supplier has a few hundred as well.
I can get the interrupts, and card detection, and everything like that
to work fine, but reading the CIS doesn't work. I've been in contact
with a guy that said he eventually got it to work, but it took a very
long time. Something like 3 months or something. I would have had it
done in under two weeks if it wasn't for this CIS problem.
Anyhow, thanks for the info!

Ok. When I asked them about it, they scratched their heads for an
answer. What
they came back with was Basis Communications' PD6710. So don't expect to
be
able to find a Cirrus Logic part to replace the CL-PS6700.

Hmm... Nope. The farthest I got was a little driver to check the card
insertion
status. Sorry.
