NAME

       pccardctl - PCMCIA card control utility
       lspcmcia - display extended PCMCIA debugging information

SYNOPSIS

       pccardctl [-V] [-v ...] command [socket]
       lspcmcia [-V] [-v ...] [socket]

DESCRIPTION

       pccardctl  is  used to monitor and control the state of PCMCIA sockets.  If a socket number is specified,
       the command will be applied to just one socket; otherwise, all sockets will be affected.

       If pccardctl is executed by root, all commands are available.  If it  is  executed  by  an  unpriviledged
       user, only the informational commands are accessible.

       lspcmcia is an alias for pccardctl ls, provided for convenience.

COMMANDS

       status
           Display the current socket status flags.

       ident
           Display card identification information, including product identification  strings,  manufacturer  ID
           codes, and function ID codes.  Not yet implemented for cardbus cards. Use lspci instead.

       info
           Much  like  the ident command, but its output is formatted as a series of Bourne-stype shell variable
           definitions for use in scripts.  Not yet implemented for cardbus cards.

       ls  Display extended debugging information about the PCMCIA sockets and devices present in the system.

       suspend

       resume
           Restore power to a socket, and re-configure for use.

       eject
           Notify all client drivers that this card will be ejected, then cut power to the socket.
