IRQ0 is weird. Are you sure you are registering the IRQ with RTDM while
providing the right number? What does /proc/xenomai/irq tell you?

There is an RT-WLAN driver for an Asus PCMCIA adapter in RTnet. It's
experimental, but not due to PCMCIA, and I've personally seen it working.

PS: At this chance, any plans to contribute PCMCIA support for PEAK
hardware to the standard CAN stack of Xenomai? There was already some
interest in such an alternative to the parport dongle e.g. The missing
piece (driver code) should be small and easily derivable from existing
SJA1000 adapter drivers.
