If so, perhaps Yes, the i82365 module does not load. >this is why you have problems and I don't. Linux 2.4 includes support for >the Cardbus driver internally, simply make sure you enable Hot Plug support, >and build PCMCIA and Cardbus support right into the kernel. I took your advice and used the kernel drivers from 2.4.2. I built the Cardbus and i82365 drivers into the kernel. This shows the exact same behavior, after a power-on reboot I get: Yenta IRQ list 06d8, PCI irq11 Socket status: 30000006 Yenta IRQ list 06d8, PCI irq11 Socket status: 30000006 and the wvlan_cs module from the external PCMCIA package loads and works without problems. However, after powering off the status message during boot is: Yenta IRQ list 0000, PCI irq11 Socket status: 35fb54ce Yenta IRQ list 0000, PCI irq11 Socket status: 22b1dcee and though the cardmgr loads it does not respond to card events, i.e. inserting a card produces *no* effect, there is not a beep, or any logged messages. Rebooting with 2.2.17 fixes the problem and 2.4.2 then works again. It looks to me like something in the PCI bus isn't setup correctly by the 2.4 kernels, but chasing that down is way beyond my ability, hence the post to linux-kernel. -- Jeff Lessem. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
