Package: pcmciautils Version: 014-3 Severity: normal I have 2 laptops, on one pcmcia compact flash adapters and microdrives work, on the other they used to work but no longer do. Both laptops are running Debian unstable; the working laptop is an older fujitsu lifebook, while the newer is a p7120 lifebook.
On the working lifebook: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/>lspcmcia Socket 0 Bridge: [yenta_cardbus] (bus ID: 0000:00:0c.0) Socket 0 Device 0: [pata_pcmcia] (bus ID: 0.0) [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/>pccardctl status Socket 0: 3.3V 16-bit PC Card Subdevice 0 (function 0) bound to driver "pata_pcmcia" [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/>pccardctl ident Socket 0: product info: "RENESAS", "FLASH", "5.0", "" manfid: 0x0007, 0x0000 function: 4 (fixed disk) On the failing lifebook: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~>lspcmcia Socket 0 Bridge: [yenta_cardbus] (bus ID: 0000:06:03.0) Socket 0 Device 0: [-- no driver --] (bus ID: 0.0) [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~>pccardctl status Socket 0: 3.3V 16-bit PC Card Subdevice 0 (function 0) [unbound] [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~>pccardctl ident Socket 0: no product info available This is the same card in both cases. Both machines are running the same udev version, and the same kernel: Linux dragon 2.6.21-1-686 #1 SMP Sat May 26 16:14:59 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux I also tried 2.6.20 and 2.6.21-2-686 on the failing machine, without better luck. These cards have worked ok in this laptop before, as recently as a couple of months ago (which the 2.6.20 kernel should predate), so I'm not sure what changed. It could even be some weird kind of hardware failure, I suppose. Wanted to file this and see if you had any thoughs on debugging. Here's the working dmesg: pccard: PCMCIA card inserted into slot 0 pcmcia: registering new device pcmcia0.0 ata1: PATA max PIO0 cmd 0x00010100 ctl 0x0001010e bmdma 0x00000000 irq 3 scsi0 : pata_pcmcia ata1.00: CFA: Renesas XX.V.3.5.0.0, Rev 0.00, max PIO4 ata1.00: 2002896 sectors, multi 0: LBA ata1.00: configured for PIO0 scsi 0:0:0:0: Direct-Access ATA Renesas XX.V.3.5 Rev PQ: 0 ANSI: 5 SCSI device sda: 2002896 512-byte hdwr sectors (1025 MB) sda: Write Protect is off sda: Mode Sense: 00 3a 00 00 SCSI device sda: write cache: disabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't support DPO or FUA SCSI device sda: 2002896 512-byte hdwr sectors (1025 MB) sda: Write Protect is off sda: Mode Sense: 00 3a 00 00 SCSI device sda: write cache: disabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't support DPO or FUA sda: sda1 sd 0:0:0:0: Attached scsi removable disk sda And the failing: pccard: card ejected from slot 0 pccard: PCMCIA card inserted into slot 0 pcmcia: registering new device pcmcia0.0 -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.20-1-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages pcmciautils depends on: ii libc6 2.5-11 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libsysfs2 2.1.0-2 interface library to sysfs ii lsb-base 3.1-23.1 Linux Standard Base 3.1 init scrip ii module-init-tools 3.3-pre11-3 tools for managing Linux kernel mo Versions of packages pcmciautils recommends: ii udev 0.105-4 /dev/ and hotplug management daemo -- no debconf information -- see shy jo
