My old laptop lacks usb2.0 ports.
So I bought a Syba pcmcia card with 3 usb 2.0 ports and
an eSATA port (for my external drive).

The boot hangs when it detects the presence of the card.
I have another card from some other manufacturer (card
is not branded) with only eSATA ports, and it does
not hang the system at all.

Not sure how to grab enough information to open a bug.
When the system hangs, I lose all comm with the system,
and I have to reboot.

What happens if you insert the card after the system is already up and
running?
If I insert the good card, the card is recognized,
and I can hot plug the external drive into the esata port
and all is well.

The Syba card freezes the system whether I plug it in
before or after boot.
To be fair to Syba, they gave me an RMA and I returned
it for an exchange. Will know in 2 weeks what the replacement
card will do.
