Hi all, I am having a problem with a Lucent Orinoco silver pcmcia card. I am using a Sony Vaio PCG-Z600HEK. Every time I plug this type of card (I've tried 2 of them) into my machine, the machine locks solid. I have to power off and back on. If I have the card in when I boot up, the machine will not boot. I have seen the same behaviour with a Dell wireless card. At boot time, the lines I get in my log about pcic devices are as follows: Jun 24 00:31:51 pan /kernel: pcic-pci0: <Ricoh RL5C475 PCI-CardBus Bridge> at device 12.0 on pci0 Jun 24 00:31:51 pan /kernel: pcic0: <Intel i82365> at port 0x3e0 iomem 0xd0000 on isa0 Jun 24 00:31:51 pan /kernel: pcic0: Polling mode Jun 24 00:31:51 pan /kernel: pccard0: <PC Card bus -- kludge version> on pcic0 I am not getting any messages when I plug the card in at all, just a hard lock. I had heard that these cards were fairly well supported, so I don't know if it is a clash between my card and the laptop, or what. Any help resolving this would be much appreciated!
