Let's be Sherlock: - pccardd doesn't do it (I checked) - the kernel doesn't do it (I checked) - the card _can't_ do it (it has no idea what IRQ is actually being generated) So once the impossible has been eliminated, I can only conclude that the pcic *does* interpret the CIS. Without the PCCARD standard or any pcic documentation to hand I can't go much further than this, but I think we do need to establish whether this is really the case, and if it is, what we can do about it. mike
