Greetings:
I have been trying to get a recently acquired Cardbus based USB 2.0 card
working under 2.6 for the past weekend. It's not going well.
Everytime I plug the card into the computer, the entire PCMCIA system just
dies, taking my network connectivity with it. I have to do a power off reset
to recover.
The cardbus card is based on the ALI USB chipset. This shows up as both an
EHCI and an OHCI device under 2.6.11.5. My laptop, an older HP Pavilion
N5150 has a UHCI based chipset:

02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Digital Equipment Corporation DECchip 21142/43
(rev 41)
My ethernet card is a generic cardbus device.
When I insert the new USB 2.0 card, the kernel reports that it's killing off
IRQ 11. Here is the actual dump from dmesg:
Mar 20 18:38:13 port2 kernel: irq 11: nobody cared!

Mar 20 18:38:16 port2 kernel: ohci_hcd 0000:06:00.0: Unlink after no-IRQ?
Controller is probably using the wrong IRQ.
Again, when the USB card in inserted, the entire PCMCIA system shuts down and
remains unusuable until powered off.
Kernel is stock 2.6.11.5. I also tried with 2.6.11, 2.6.10, 2.6.9 and 2.6.7 -
same result. Distribution is Slackware 9.1 - gcc is 3.2.3
HELP!!!

Hi,
I recently had a similar problem, but with a netgear-wg511t
However, a kind gentleman called [email protected] supplied with me a patch that
solved the problem.
Not sure if it will work with your card, but you can always try.
You should find it on this list,
thread topic is "yenta_socket "nobody cared - Disabling IRQ #4""
