    Hi.

    Similar results here, except I can be more specific. I see the issue
    using pcmcia only. The package I'm using is the
    external-to-the-kernel-tree pcmcia-cs-3.2.3. Under 2.4.22, I get a
    complete freeze (no SysRq, no flashing cursor) when I insmod i82365.o. I
    tried recompiling the whole kernel & modules using gcc 2.96 and 3.2 to
    no avail. If I use the kernel tree's code, I can insmod okay, but my
    ltmodem_cs driver reports the modem as being busy all the time. The
    problem was fixed by reverting to 2.4.21 (I'd already deleted pre2,
    which was working). No configuration changes required - just a
    recompile.

    Regards,

    Nigel
