If so, during the boot time how the pci_device_id structure gets the info about the drvier_data? Would like to know the name of the function name(s) and file(s) that are used for this process. Thanks a lot. Ananda Krishnan __________________________________ Discover Yahoo! Get on-the-go sports scores, stock quotes, news and more. Check it out! http://discover.yahoo.com/mobile.html
