13 Are you using just pcmcia-cs, or are you using hotplug stuff as well? I
14 don't have a problem with cardmgr not detecting my card on startup with
15 just pcmcia-cs. Try checking your logs and see if something else (a
16 race condition?) is causing cargmgr to fail bringing your card up at
17 boot time. If not, start a bug on bugs.gentoo.org, and I'll look into
18 it.
