So the PnP layers put a device on IRQ 4, which is sensible > [ 37.516000] eth1: orinoco_cs at 0.0, irq 4, io 0x0100-0x013f The PCMCIA layer then ignores this and takes IRQ 4 simply because although PnP has used it the IRQ isnt currently live > [ 53.580000] IRQ handler type mismatch for IRQ 4 > [ 53.580000] current handler: pcmcia0.0 The serial IRQ setup fails > [ 53.580000] [<c0141a25>] setup_irq+0x135/0x1e0 > [ 53.580000] [<c0230930>] serial8250_interrupt+0x0/0xf0 > [ 53.580000] [<c0141b73>] request_irq+0xa3/0xc0 > [ 53.580000] [<c023086e>] serial8250_startup+0x47e/0x4b0 > [ 53.580000] [<c022bf58>] uart_startup+0x48/0x160 > [ 53.580000] [<c022cb9f>] uart_open+0xbf/0x460 This is all scary and generally not needed spew but handy for debug. Looks like a PCMCIA layer bug. It should be respecting IRQ assignment (not just allocation) by other resource configuration layers.
