Package: boot-floppies Version: unavailable; reported 2002-11-10 Severity: normal
Hi, I hope anyone have seen this before and can give me some hints when I start to debug it. In past two weeks, I tried two laptops, installing Debian on it, using the a WLAN card. The first one was a modern Toshiba laptop, there was no problem - PCMCIA was configured with dbootstrap and worked w/o problems. Another is an old Siemens Scenic. There appeared a strange problem: when using the dbootstrap's menu, the i82365 driver has been loaded and cardmgr started, okay. But when a card was inserted, no module was able to load and reported something about resources. (A message very similar to this one, from http://theblackmoor.net/dlink.shtml : Sep 9 01:09:37 psi cardmgr[1644]: starting, version is 3.1.22 Sep 9 01:09:37 psi cardmgr[1644]: watching 1 sockets Sep 9 01:09:37 psi kernel: cs: IO port probe 0x0c00-0x0cff: clean.

(but with orinoco_cs in my case). I also tried a Flash card reader, similar messages. The funny thing is - it works fine when I go to the console and do: - kill cardmgr - rmmod dc - rmmod i82365 - modprobe i82365 - cardmgr and all drivers do load after doing so. Where is the problem? What is wrong with the PCMCIA setup if it works when loading manually? Could we get some kind of timing problems? Should we include some sleep calls between loading of PCMCIA modules and cardmgr start?
