Hi,
I'm having a quite odd problem with pcmcia cards:
When I plug in the card after booting, it works fine.
After removing it and plugging it in again, my system doesn't even notice that a card has been plugged in.
When I remove and plug in the card again, it works again - and so on.
When the card is not recoginzed, it also doesn't show up in lspci.
I'm using kernel 2.6.15-gentoo-r1 with udev. and PCMCIA is controlled through hotplug.
uname -a:

lspci for the pcmcia socket:
