Description Marcus Meissner 2005-08-29 07:55:53 UTC

On my Fujitsu Siemens Lifebook plugging in any PCMCIA / CARDBUS card  
does not have any effect.  
  
Apparently the cardbus system is not started or the socket is not powered  
up or similar.  
 
yenta_socket is loaded fine. 
 
(if the card is plugged in when booting, the slot is powered fine.) 
 
what logfiles do you need?

hwinfo at least. Is the machine available for Christian?

Comment 2 Marcus Meissner 2005-08-29 09:30:57 UTC

its my private laptop, but i have it here in the company for physical  
access.  
  
it is currently f70.suse.de, root has default password for remote access.

Comment 3 Christian Zoz 2005-08-29 09:38:49 UTC

no hwinfo. i'll check it myself.

Comment 4 Christian Zoz 2005-08-29 10:20:41 UTC

Please unpluga and plug the card now. Does it work?

No blocker, since it works on most machines.

Comment 5 Marcus Meissner 2005-08-29 11:22:29 UTC

i now rebootet (without any card again)  
 
- plugged in the ath_pci card => does not power up 
- removed ath_pci card 
- plugged in the airo_cs card => does power up 
- removed airo_cs card 
- plugged in ath_pci card => now does power up?

Comment 6 Marcus Meissner 2005-08-29 11:25:07 UTC

same behaviour if I do it the other way round. 
 
note that i just physically plug it, i do not run pccardctl

Comment 7 Marcus Meissner 2005-09-06 14:33:12 UTC

since my laptop is the only one exposing this, with easy workaround, i think 
we can close this for now.
