NAME
isapnp —
introduction to ISA
Plug-and-Play support
SYNOPSIS
isapnp0 at isa?
An
isapnp |
bus can be configured for each supported ISA bus. |
DESCRIPTION
NetBSD provides machine-independent bus support and
drivers for ISA Plug-and-Play (isapnp) autoconfiguration of PnP-compatible
devices on an ISA bus.
SUPPORTED DEVICES
NetBSD includes machine-independent ISAPNP drivers,
sorted by function and driver name:
SCSI interfaces
-
-
- aha
- Adaptec AHA-154[02] SCSI interfaces.
-
-
- aic
- Adaptec AHA-1520B SCSI interfaces.
Disk controllers
-
-
- wdc
- Standard IDE and ATAPI drive controller.
Serial and parallel
interfaces
-
-
- com
- 8250/16450/16550-compatible ISA PnP serial cards and
internal modems.
Network interfaces
-
-
- 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.
Sound cards
-
-
- 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.
Miscellaneous devices
-
-
- 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.
