I'm using tulip based cards and a linksys PC 10/100 + 56K mdm.

Incidentally, the i82365 module should work ok (using ISA interrupts)
despite the "No IRQ known" messages.  The Yenta driver won't work at
all if PCI interrupts aren't set up.  So I guess another question
would be, what card(s) are you using and how are they misbehaving?

test10-pre6, your code from mid october worked (with gross hack I made for the L1
cache define).

test10 release, nothing works now.

Hmm, lsmod showed it.  I'll duplicate and report.

Ok.  I'll go back to test10-pre6 and get a working pcmcia system and we'll go from
there.

The sourceforge site is the most up to date place for PCMCIA.  That is
the best place to report bugs that are specific to that code.  For
bugs that are specific to things in the 2.4 tree and/or have to do
with how PCMCIA interacts with other subsystems (i.e., the problem
that started this thread, where I think the problem is in the PCI
subsystem), then linux-kernel is probably a better place.

David [Hinds],

On a related topic, I've pulled down your stuff at sourceforge and we
are using it for our 2.4 build.  Is this the baest place or do you have
somewhere more recent and is this the list to report bugs?  We have seen
some problems with IBM thinkpads with DSP devices having some issues
(like the volume control doesn't work right on 2.4).  Most are just
annoyances and what I would classify as level IV bugs (very
non-critical).

Thanks,

Jeff

How long ago was this?  I would need to know what kernel versions and
what PCMCIA driver versions were involved.  It has been months since I
changed any of the PCI bridge setup code in the PCMCIA modules.

There is no module called pci_fixup.  There is an object file called
pci_fixup that is linked into pcmcia_core.  This has been there since
PCMCIA release 3.1.11.

This is a PCI subsystem issue; the PCMCIA code asks the PCI subsystem
to activate the bridge device and isn't working.

This is odd.  I don't have an explanation for this, especially without
knowing what PCMCIA driver releases were involved.  Unless you specify
otherwise, the i82365 driver just reports the bridge settings that it
finds; it won't change the interrupt delivery mode unless told to do
so.  So something else has caused your two sockets to be set up in
different ways; there isn't any way to tell the i82365 module to do
that.

Undoubtedly :(  But it used to work when I used your i82365 module instead of
the kernel's yenta module.  The i82365 module now gives the same failure
output as the yenta module.

I modprobed the following to get things up and running, (all your pkg)
pcmcia_core, i82365, and ds.  Then ran cardmgr.  All was well.  Now when I
load i82365, it yields the pci irq failure and the irq type is changed.

2nd sentc: What changed in the last two-three weeks?  I notice that the
current pcmcia (yours) code loads a new module called pci_fixup.

The dmesg output from loading i82365 is:

Intel PCIC probe: <4>PCI: No IRQ known for interrupt pin A of device 00:03.0.

PCI: No IRQ known for interrupt pin B of device 00:03.1.

  Ricoh RL5C478 rev 03 PCI-to-CardBus at slot 00:03, mem 0x1000

ISA irqs (default) = 3,4,7,11 polling interval = 1000 ms

Previous output was:

ISA irqs (default) = 3,4,7,11 polling interval = 1000 ms

Notice the change from serial irq to isa irq.
