Fwd: Re: [ltp] cardmgr monitoring only one pcmcia socket (T30)

No luck the 1st time and no luck googling so I'll try once more:

On my thinkpad (a22p debian 2.6.7), I recently noticed the same thing
when I needed to transfer some pix on a CF adapter that had always
been working quite well. The top slot was used by an orinoco wireless
card, but when I stuck the CF adapter in the lower slot (slot 1, by
'cardinfo'), there was no familiar double beep.

At 1st I thought it was just broken hardware, but 'cardctl status'
 and 'cardctl info' correctly detects and identifies a card
 insertion, even tho cardinfo does not. dmesg does not report any
 events for a card inserted into slot 1.

/var/lib/pcmcia/stab lists only the card in slot 0.

/proc interrupts only show an int for slot 0


And in win2k, both slots are recognized and work (as well as they can
be expected to work anyway).

Any ideas?  fixes?
