introduction to ISA Plug-and-Play support
isapnp0 at isa?
An
isapnp |
bus can be configured for each supported ISA bus. |
NetBSD provides machine-independent bus support and
drivers for ISA Plug-and-Play (isapnp) autoconfiguration of PnP-compatible
devices on an ISA bus.
NetBSD includes machine-independent ISAPNP drivers,
sorted by function and driver name:
- aha
- Adaptec AHA-154[02] SCSI interfaces.
- aic
- Adaptec AHA-1520B SCSI interfaces.
- wdc
- Standard IDE and ATAPI drive controller.
- com
- 8250/16450/16550-compatible ISA PnP serial cards and internal modems.
- an
- Aironet 4500/4800 and Cisco 340 series 802.11 interfaces.
- ep
- 3Com 3c509B EtherLink III Ethernet interface.
- le
- PCnet-PnP Ethernet interfaces based on the successor to the AMD LANCE
chip.
- ne
- NE2000-compatible Ethernet interfaces.
- tr
- TROPIC based token ring interfaces.
- ess
- ESS Technology derived PnP sound cards and devices.
- guspnp
- Gravis Ultrasound PnP sound cards.
- sb
- SoundBlaster, SoundBlaster 16, and SoundBlaster Pro sound cards.
- wss
- Windows Sound System compatible cards, e.g., most of the cards with
Crystal Semiconductor chips.
- ym
- Yamaha OPL3-SAx sound cards.
- pcic
- PCI PCMCIA controllers, including the Cirrus Logic GD6729.
ISA Plug-and-Play devices also have alternate ISA drivers with
static ISA IO address configuration. These are listed in
isa(4). The
isapnp
bus ignores devices that have already been
found and configured as isa(4)
devices. The isapnp
bus is only effective on
machines which lack a PnP BIOS, or on which the PnP BIOS has been disabled.
The manual pages for each individual isapnp
driver
also list the supported front-ends for other buses.
