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.

       config
           Display  the socket configuration, including power settings, inter-
           rupt and I/O window settings, and configuration  registers.   --not
           yet implemented

       ident
           Display  card identification information, including product identi-
           fication 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 se-
           ries 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
           Shut down and then disable power for a socket.

       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.

       insert
           Notify all client drivers that this card has just been inserted.

OPTIONS
       -V     Show version information and exit.

       -v     Increase  the  verbosity  of the ls command.  Giving this option
              twice increases verbosity further.
