yenta_socket/PCMCIA problems.Re: [ltp] FYI - Linuxcare T30 certification now available.

Hi,

What distribution(s) are you working on?

You said that card insertions aren't noticed by cardmgr,  do you have any
other problems?

I take it you're on the T30, can you give me your model number?

Thanks,
Pam

I still have problems with PCMCIA and yenta_socket. The most irritating
problem is that card insertions dont seem to be noticed by cardmgr.

Here is the output from:

 >cardctl status
Socket 0:
   no card

Here are the syslog messages from `/etc/rc.d/init.d/pcmcia start`:

Both kernel 2.4.18 and 2.4.19 seem to produce the same symptoms. An
associated problem might be these syslog messages:

`lspci -v` produces:

Any ideas?
