Hello,
Since I run the 2.4.20 kernel (+bootsplash patch), (I didn't try without
this patch but I think it is not the problem), my Xircom Cardbus don't
work any more! In fact, I put the card into the pcmcia slot, the pc
detect it, load the correct module (xirc2ps_cb), start eth1 but the led
link (both side) blinks.
I have try with a hub 10, a ethernet card 10 and an ethernet card
10/100. I have so try 2 cables... but same problem.
I have try to impose the ethernet type of link mii-tool -A10BaseT-HD and
-F10BaseT-HD.
Thanks
Arnaud

against me ;-)
with a lot of tries... there are is a """solution"""
- put the card
- the led link blink
- you MUST define an IP with ifconfig
- the led link stop blinking !!!
is that a bug ?
thanks

Mine doesn't work either, I have a RBEM56G-100.
Bought this off ebay for quite cheap to replace my REM56G-100.
It detects it, etc etc, but never actually works.
I put the REM56G-100 back in, insmod'd the driver, and back in business.
I haven't tried a 2.5.x kernel, nor a 2.4.21(it's on my list of things to
do)
I was using the xircom_cb driver though. The xircom_tulip_cb didn't work
either.

the card works with 2.4.20 nice and works if you set an ip address with
the 2.4.21

I use the xirc2ps_cs module. I haven't force cardmgr to use so I think
it's the good module for the card

Going to move to 2.4.21 in a few minutes(just booting up the laptop so i
can copy the vmlinuz image over to it)

If it's a CEM56-100, that's not a cardbus card!
That's the regular pcmcia version. That would explain why your xirc2ps_cs
is working. You have the same card as I do, with a differing model name.
Never did figure out what's different between the REM and CEM.

7m33s+23m29s+6m58s+35s minutes and seconds later, I have a working 2.4.21
PCMCIA Card came up just fine, cardbus continues to refuse to work.
Now if only DMA mode would work on the Opti 621 chipset inside this
Omnibook 5500/5700 hybrid laptop :) Then it wouldn't take 38 minutes to
compile. I knew I should have done this on the p4/2.53 that sits right
next to it!
But anyways, that's the way it goes

a day my father give me this card and said me it's a cardbus card...
I accept and since this day, I think it's a cardbus... but if you sais
it's a regular pcmcia... why not ;-)

It should do - drivers/ide/pci/opti621.c

Indeed, I have it compiled in even.
Let me see if hte laptop is turned on currently.
Unfortunately, no. But anyways, it does the classic error of {your drive}
{shouldn't do this}
and then disables DMA mode, and goes back to working.
It's an HP Omnibook 5700, and it's a Toshiba 1.3 gig drive in there. I
don't remember if my Omnibook 5500 did it, and it's a pain to take the
donor screen back off the 5700 and putting it on the 5500 to try.
I had to disable "automatically enable DMA" for the laptop not to jam up
for a minute while it figures out the DMA mode isn't going to work.
It doesn't work in windows either for that matter, if I remember right the
option is completely greyed out. Blacklist on windows?
I will check the exact lspci and hdparm -i when I get to the office
tomorrow.
