Hello, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
I'm running Gentoo on a Sony Vaio Laptop with a 2.4.18 kernel (stock + |
| 4 |
acpi patches) and no devFS. To make sure it wasn't related, i did the |
| 5 |
same test under Gentoo's 2.4.19-r1 and devFS support. |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
I emerged the pcmcia-cs ebuild and it cannot see the flash card as a |
| 8 |
disk drive. On the same laptop using Debian, as soon as i insert the |
| 9 |
card, i can fdisk /dev/hde and it works, i can write data in and out. |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
Under Gentoo however, i cannot. It keeps saying : Unable to open |
| 12 |
/dev/hde. Block devices are here though ... |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
Under /etc/modules.autoload, i have this : |
| 15 |
pcmcia_core |
| 16 |
yenta_socket |
| 17 |
ds |
| 18 |
ide-cs |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
dmesg seems to return proper messages : |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
Linux Kernel Card Services 3.1.22 |
| 23 |
options: [pci] [cardbus] [pm] |
| 24 |
PCI: Assigned IRQ 9 for device 02:05.0 |
| 25 |
PCI: Assigned IRQ 9 for device 02:05.1 |
| 26 |
Yenta IRQ list 0cb8, PCI irq9 |
| 27 |
Socket status: 30000006 |
| 28 |
Yenta IRQ list 0cb8, PCI irq9 |
| 29 |
Socket status: 30000810 |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
Now, starting the pcmcia service returns : |
| 32 |
* Starting pcmcia... |
| 33 |
cardmgr[5224]: watching 2 sockets |
| 34 |
cardmgr[5224]: Card Services release does not |
| 35 |
match |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
And furthermore, cannot stop it anymore resulting in [!!]. |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
The pcmcia-cs seems to be the issue, the version is : |
| 40 |
pcmcia-cs-3.1.33-r3 |
| 41 |
|
| 42 |
What could i do to fix this ? |
