 Posted: Sat Apr 23, 2005 11:00 am Post subject: cs: unable to map card memory! [SOLVED] |
 |
|
i'm having problems to get my orinoco-pcmcia-card working. since i guess it's more hardware- than network-related atm i've choosen this forum.
i bought a Texas Instruments PCI1410 PC card Cardbus Controller(pci-pcmcia-adapter) and a orinoco silver pcmcia-card on ebay. after reading several threads on this topic, following lots of advices this is the current status on my machine/kernel:
sys-apps/pcmcia-cs installed and added to default runlevel, even followed this guide, upgrading my baselayout(alltough that guide doesn't fit my situation)
| Code: | crane peletiah # lsmod
Module Size Used by
yenta_socket 19784 2
rsrc_nonstatic 9024 1 yenta_socket
orinoco_cs 6664 0
pcmcia 19400 3 orinoco_cs
pcmcia_core 41908 4 yenta_socket,rsrc_nonstatic,orinoco_cs,pcmcia
orinoco 41612 1 orinoco_cs
hermes 7616 2 orinoco_cs,orinoco
|
(only the relevant modules are pasted, orinoco and orinoco_cs are beeing loaded by entries in /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6, the others have been added automagically by pcmcia-cs, i guess)
cardmgr(pcmcia-service) starts without error-messages or hangups, but still there's no entry with 'cardctl info', 'cardctl status' says: | Code: | crane peletiah # cardctl status
Socket 0:
5V 16-bit PC Card
function 0: [ready]
|
when i remove the card from the adapter there's only: | Code: | crane peletiah # cardctl status
Socket 0:
no card
|
- so i'm not beeing far from the solution! it even beeps when ejecting/inserting the card.
there's a message in dmesg saying: | Code: | Yenta: CardBus bridge found at 0000:01:09.0 [133f:3000]

i have already edited the mem-entry in /etc/pcmcia/config.opts, removing the old entries and adding those that should be free referring to the output of cat /proc/iomem:

heres the mem-ranges i've defined in /etc/pcmcia/config.opts:
| Code: | crane peletiah # nano /etc/pcmcia/config.opts
include memory 0x000d8000-0x000effff
include memory 0x20000000-0xcfffffff
include memory 0xe3002000-0xe3002fff
include memory 0xe3005100-0xfebfffff
|
have i missunderstood the hexadezimal-system or is there some other conflict, not actually related to the memory-ranges? every advice is highly appreciated, i've come to a point where i'm really clueless

| this is just a guess but maybe your usb mouse is taking your space unless you have other hardware thats not showing up. |

after 4 days i've finally set up this card! that was some hard work - but beeing persistent has paid off again. 
in the afternoon i've been able to solve the memory problem with the help of this thread resp. with the bug report referrenced there. i just configured the memory-range that is beeing mapped by PCI Bus #01, then i still had some error-messages but pcmcia_socket0 had been added below PCI CardBus #02, ranging from e2005000-e2005fff - the space unused had been correctly mapped. since pcmcia_socket0 only used this small range, i edited /etc/pcmcia/config.opts again and narrowed the range to the actually used one, after that there were no more memory-errors. oh, and very important, i added /etc/init.d/pcmcia to runlevel boot, not default, otherwise mapping does not work for some reason - oddly cardmgr has to be started manually resp. added to /etc/conf.d/local.start.
also 'cardctl info/cardctl ident' showed a proper entry after memory beeing allocated, but unfortunately there was still no device shown with 'iwconfig'.
'dmesg' spit out an error-message containing the phrase "GetNextTuple(). No matching CIS configuration, maybe you need the ignore_cis_vcc=1 parameter.".
after some googling the solution to get rid of that was to add the line | Code: | | module "orinoco_cs" opts "ignore_cis_vcc=1" |
in /etc/pcmcia/config.opts.
no more obvious error messages, but still no working device.
then i realized that the messages reporting 'IP ports clean/excluding etc.' weren't actually messages of sucessfull mapping but error-messages as well. so i narrowed the entry for ioports in config.opts to the one not used by PCI CardBus #02(just like with memory, using the output of cat /proc/ioports), after that, the piece of crap works(i guess i'd better not call it crap, otherwise it could strike back with refusing memory-ranges or something) 
here's the magic output after successfully adding the changes: | Code: | crane peletiah # cat /proc/iomem
