thanks to Whyme_t, we finally have PCI enumeration in Clicker. I've been kinda busy writing the codemonkey tool and a couple of plugins for it. That gives us a fairly general code-rewriting tool
Oh, btw, the KDS navigation panel has been remastered too ... you're gonna love it
Oh, btw, to get pci detected, you need to boot fully (Sh+SPace ... ESC), switch to module manager (Sh+F4, Ctl+F5), load "ioman" or "testio" (ENTER when highlighted).
To check what it did, go to KDs panel (Sh+F4, Ctl+F2) and head yourself to system.device.<misc/disk/whatever> ... use arrows to navigate and [ENTER] to enter subsets (white) or objects (light ceylan).
Any report comparing clicker enumeration result and linux/windows/whatever enumeration result is of course welcome.
Have tested Clicker, seem to work fine and report pci devices,
The only thing that Could be a problem is that it reports 8 eth devices, Not sure if this is an error or I just dont know what i am looking at. I will have a better look at the rest of it in a while.
running on :
MSI Motherboard
AMD 2600+
Realtak 8139
ATI Radeon 9600

Hmm ... since i'm planning to use RTL8139 as my "reference NIC", i'd be interested by the descriptions of those 8 ETH devices (e.g 'pci id', vendor, class and subclasses)
Have given clicker a try on my toshiba laptop and it works fine.
Just a hint: could you, pype, or you, whyme_t, include some module ore just a readme about the usage of this - info panel shower system. it is really a tricky thing to handle without the smallest hint for those not familiar with the interface.
It has detected 8 vga devices, located under kds://system.device.display.pci. Is this an intended behaviour?
reported values: device: 0x00004c4d vendor: 0x00001002. this tupel is registered 8 times.
we'll investigate that 8-registered devices too... it seems that the code that distinguish a valid function from an invalid one might need refinement ... ATAPI devices aren't detected so far (hence the burners/cdroms will not appear in system.disk.*)
Hmmm .. that would be a good hint for all the waiters rounda there: a system giving out tips at random *sssffg*. what a source for richdom clicker will be with the random tip banner module *smirk*
in the dictionnaire, there about eight possible meanings for the word "tip". *maaan*
It seems that our detection routine was missing a test case for some not-so-well-behaving devices. I added the test (headerType!=0x80). Could you be kind enough to re-test with the new image ? If you still see 8 devices instead of a single one, can you tell the "headerType" they have ?
