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 inter-
faces.
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.
