Hi, Im the other unhappy CTX laptop owner with similiar problems, i did after giving up retrograde down to 2.2.8-PAO again, and lost my cdrom capability..... it locks the system up, as for you, i did notice 1 thing the pcic only initalizes the ed driver and not an sio..... and the /boot/loader.rc i think is relentlessly futile... couldnt get it to work for me either, also ive heard nasty rumours that cardbus systems are not supported under the 3.1, mine is also cardbus.... ive also hear a good rumour that the
PAO-3.1 is due soon.... when..??? who knows. dont put a stake in it just yet.... cuz we may soon be the only 2 people with these CTX systems... i love mine, cept for broken pcmcia under 3.1 and broken cdrom under 2.2.8, either way...  everyone else bout toshiba, comapaq or sony.... but my system is completely loaded,  sound even works.... i am currently looking for a message sent to me by another mobile user about the 3.1 PAO suggesting CVSuping the PAO30, and using it...  it failed for me, but its an option
that may work for you, yet doubtful, our systems are minorly similiar yet different.... i have an internal modem and i believe a different pcic controller and cdrom... does your  cd rom work  under 2.2.8 ????

hang in there..... I am

Kerberus
