Bugzilla – Bug 113753
plugging in pcmcia / cardbus cards after the machine is running has no effect
Last modified: 2007-06-05 09:37:14 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?
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.
no hwinfo. i'll check it myself.
Please unpluga and plug the card now. Does it work? No blocker, since it works on most machines.
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?
same behaviour if I do it the other way round. note that i just physically plug it, i do not run pccardctl
since my laptop is the only one exposing this, with easy workaround, i think we can close this for now.
