[ltp] USB2 pcmcia adapter

[Pablo Vera]

Hi everyone:

A few weeks ago I blew the USB controller of my R40, and after some
really helpful comments from many on this list, I decided to buy a
pcmcia USB2 card.

Well, I just got it, but I am having troubles with it.  This card works
perfect in a Toshiba laptop with both WinXP and Linux (FreeSpire 1.0), 
but in my R40 (Linspire 5.1 & FreeSpire 1.0) I get the following 
messages upon insertion:

  uhci_hcd 0000:03:00.0: UHCI Host Controller
  uhci_hcd 0000:03:00.0: new USB bus registered, assigned bus number 5

    00000020 printing eip:

  PREEMPT

... many more messages up to:

<6>note: pccardd[4252] exited with preempt_count 2


So, when I blew the USB controller, did I also somehow damaged the PCI 
bus ?, or is there some incompatibility between the card and my R40 ?

Any thoughts ?
