PCI hotplug?

Hi,

Can somebody tell me how to enable/disable a pci slot. I am trying to do a hotplug on the pci slot. Is it possible in Open SUSE ?
If its possible can somebody please tell me how to do it. I was doing some research and went over the following topics hwup, hwdown, sysfs, but nothing worked.

My confidence on Linux OS is pretty high and am sure there should be a way!. Please help !

Thanks

What are you really looking for?

Hotplug is included as a standard feature of the Linux kernel from version 2.4 onwards. In 2.6 kernel, it is made available to all sysfs adapted buses and driver classes.
