It will both print the correct stuff, and also document the probing path messages that occur before the net device is registered. So please correct the prolem that way, thank you. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

I remember trying dev_info first and getting null from it. Retried, got (null): ISA P&P 16/4 Adapter/A (short) | 16/4 ISA-16 Adapter found So it seems dev_info does not know about 16-bit pcmcia devices or buses... dev_driver_string() finds neither dev->name, dev->bus->name nor dev->class->name. Will dig into this some other day.

ibmtr and ibmtr_cs show tr%d in dmesg after alloc_netdev() but before register_netdev(). Fix it like e100 does - put a different name into dev->name until the device gets registered. I/O port seems to be unique enough and is available for the time of printk messages.
