Following error message appears on my screen: PCI: Enabling device 0000:00:0b.0 (0000 -> 0003) ACPI: PCI interrupt 0000:00:0b.0[A] -> GSI 19 (level, low) -> IRQ 19 3c59x: Donald Becker and others. www.scyld.com/network/vortex.html 0000:00:0b.0: 3Com PCI 3c905B Cyclone 100baseTx at 0x1000.

Returns -22 3c59x: probe of 0000:00:0d.0 failed with error -22 This doesn't happen with older kernels (especially with 2.6.10) and so I've done a binary search and narrowed it down to 2.6.11-rc5 where it first hits me. My config, lspci output and the dmesg output of the working and non-working version can be found at [1] Feel free to ask if any information is missing or if I am supposed to try a patch.
