Anyone have a clue: I have a d-link dwl-G650+ pcmcia wireless card that |
| 2 |
causes a hard crash whenever it is inserted into a dell i8200 laptop. I |
| 3 |
last emailed about this many months back, and a number of others had a |
| 4 |
similar problem but no fixes. I am hoping that by now someone will have |
| 5 |
a fix or I might as well ebay the card and see if something else will |
| 6 |
work. |

The error is: |
| 9 |
CPU: Machine Check Exception: 000000000000004 |
| 10 |
Bank0: a200000084010400 |
| 11 |
Kernel Panic - not syncing: CPU context corrupt |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
If I dont install the pcmcia modules I can insert the card. |
| 14 |
yenta_socket appears to be the culprit as the crash occurs when this |
| 15 |
module loads. On rare occasions, I can insert (and use) the card, but |
| 16 |
the next time - crash! |

This has happened since I bought the card just after I started using the |
| 19 |
early 2.6 kernels, and is occurring with gentoo-sources-2.6.12-r6. |

An old hermes card works fine, so I know there is no hardware problem. |
