microcode_ctl in FC4 doesn't get enabled if you run it on non-Intel, or < 686.

You can get desktop PCI->PCMCIA bridge cards. Theoretically we could grep lspci output for pcmcia and only enable the service if we find something, but this brings two problems. - Docking stations. I think some older laptops only have PCMCIA when docked. - If I added a PCI bridge after I did the install I'd need to manually enable the service. Ideally, something like kudzu/hal/whatever would reenable it when it discovers something new on first boot with the new hardware installed.

chkconfig $servicename off is somewhat cleaner.

Thanks, Dave.
