No ... As I've said in my first e-mail: > > Of course I have checked all of this in /proc/interrupts and > > /proc/ioports. Concretely the I/O port range is not in use.

I don't know if it conflicts with other devices ... I don't really know whether the card is trying to use other range under Linux ... Well, in fact I installed the driver in Windoze with the only purpose of checking possible hardware fails. I suppose that I have to perform some C programming in order to print in the standard error which is the i/o range that is trying to use the module aic7xxx (in fact, I have located the precise point where this occurs, I think). But my obligations here at university (research & teaching) don't let me to dedicate much time to this. So, please, any help will be very, very appreciated. Perhaps, I have found a nasty bug ... What do you think to this respect? And if there are some kernel-package-gurus out there, an easy (I suppose) question (but whose answer I haven't found in the documentation): > > P.S.: By the way, someone can tell me how to use the kernel-package > > (make-kpkg) to configure the PCMCIA modules?
