Hi all --
I'm trying to get pcmcia-cs 3.0.13 working with 2.2.5 on an sx. The
slot is a Vadem 469 that I swiped from an AS200 (worked fine there).
Best guess is the difference between APECS(?) on the 200 and PYXIS
on the SX. I've been to Dave's beta forum, and there's precious little
axp discussion there. Also tried the PCIC_OPTS to constrain the probed
irq's. It didn't seem to care. Here's the log exerpts...
TIA,
-ls-
First go-round I took the defaults from the source tree:
Sep 30 18:02:56 zeppo pcmcia: Starting PCMCIA services:
Sep 30 18:02:56 zeppo pcmcia: modules
Sep 30 18:02:56 zeppo kernel: Linux PCMCIA Card Services 3.0.13

Sep 30 18:02:56 zeppo kernel: options: [pci]
Sep 30 18:02:56 zeppo kernel: Intel PCIC probe:

Sep 30 18:02:56 zeppo kernel: host opts [1]: [ext mode] [isa buf]
Sep 30 18:02:56 zeppo kernel: ISA irqs (default) = none! polling interval = 1000 ms
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This is a problem...
Sep 30 18:02:56 zeppo pcmcia: cardmgr.
Sep 30 18:02:56 zeppo cardmgr[338]: starting, version is 3.0.13
Sep 30 18:02:56 zeppo kernel: cs: IO port probe 0x1000-0x17ff: clean.
Then I did a manual config, including the only axp option:
DEC Alpha UDB target platform (y/n)
This produced:
