Calling all PCMCIA/Wireless gurus

[dubG]

Okay, here's the thing. I know there are tons of posts on problems with the Linksys "instant wireless" WPC11, and they have all helped very much. However, I've run into a problem that I cannot find information on in any of the other posts. I've already installed the PCMCIA_CS package, and it's all set up.. I can load pcmcia_core, i82365, ds, orinoco_cs all correctly on their IF i do them manually through modprobe/insmod, but theres one problem... When I put my card into the slot (or, whenver PCMCIA is restarted or I reboot) I get the following error:

cardmgr[51] Socet 1: Linksys WPC11 11Mbps 802.11b Wlan Card
kernel: orinoco_cs REQUEST IRQ: Resource in Use
cardmgr[51] get dev info on socet 1 failed: Resource temporarily unavailable

As you can see.. cardmgr recognizes the card, and tries to load the correct module, but errors out when trying to initialize the card. I cannot find any information on this error that has helped me. *ANY* help is *GREATLY* appreciated, as I'm trying desperately to get this to work.

2 things :
1) easily solved, you are trying to install your modules over a kernel driver. This happen if you choose to compile a wireless driver within your kernel and another as a modules. Solution : recompile your kernel with only one wireles driver, or put them all as modules if you want to try them one by one.

2) the IRQ is shared with another periph. Try to change your bios plug and play parameters to something like "pnp os=no ".

Good luck
