Summary : Daemon and device drivers for using PCMCIA adapters
Description :
Many laptop machines (and some others) support PCMCIA cards for expansion.
Also known as "credit card adapters", PCMCIA cards are small cards for
everything from SCSI support to modems. They are hot swappable (they can
be exchanged without rebooting the system) and quite convienent. This
package contains support for numerous PCMCIA cards of all varieties and
supplies a daemon which allows them to be hot swapped.
The "Source RPM" field tells what RPM it came from.
