Hi all,
I recently bought a Siemens Amilo laptop. Everything works fine but
the PCMCIA and ACPI subsystems. I don't really care about the latter
(or do I? -- see below), but need my WLAN card. lspci says the
controller is a "CardBus bridge: O2 Micro, Inc. OZ6912 Cardbus
Controller". The problem seems to be related to an IRQ conflict.
Unfortunately the BIOS offers no options to change any IRQs...
What I have found out so far:
- lspci -v:
02:03.0 CardBus bridge: O2 Micro, Inc. OZ6912 Cardbus Controller
Subsystem: Unknown device 1734:102a
Flags: bus master, stepping, slow devsel, latency 168, IRQ 17
Memory at 20001000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K]
Bus: primary=02, secondary=03, subordinate=06, sec-latency=176
Memory window 0: 20400000-207ff000 (prefetchable)
Memory window 1: 20800000-20bff000
I/O window 0: 00004000-000040ff
I/O window 1: 00004400-000044ff
16-bit legacy interface ports at 0001
- /proc/interrupts
17: 73211 IO-APIC-level Intel ICH4, eth0, O2 Micro, Inc.
OZ6912 Cardbus Controller
- /proc/ioports:
4000-40ff : PCI CardBus #03
4400-44ff : PCI CardBus #03
- /proc/iomem:
20001000-20001fff : O2 Micro, Inc. OZ6912 Cardbus Controller
20400000-207fffff : PCI CardBus #03
20800000-20bfffff : PCI CardBus #03
I've added all the above to /etc/pcmcia/config.opts:
include port 0x4000-0x40ff, port 0x4400-0x44ff
include memory 0x20001000-0x20001fff
include memory 0x20400000-0x20bfffff
cardctl ident, info and status say:
Socket 0:
product info: "SAMSUNG", "11Mbps WLAN Card", "Version 01.01", ""
manfid: 0x0250, 0x0002
function: 6 (network)
PRODID_1="SAMSUNG"
PRODID_2="11Mbps WLAN Card"
PRODID_3="Version 01.01"
PRODID_4=""
MANFID=0250,0002
FUNCID=6
Socket 0:
3.3V 16-bit PC Card
function 0: [ready], [bat low]
So the card gets recognized by the system. But it is not activated.
When I try with another LAN (not WLAN) card, I get "pcnet_cs:
RequestIRQ: Resource in use" in dmesg. Apart from that I see (when
booting with the LAN card):
Linux Kernel Card Services 3.1.22
options: [pci] [cardbus] [pm]
isapnp: Scanning for PnP cards...
isapnp: No Plug & Play device found
Intel PCIC probe: not found.

cs: memory probe 0xa0000000-0xa0ffffff: clean.
pcnet_cs: RequestIRQ: Resource in use
The system is debian GNU/Linux unstable, Kernel 2.4.21 (still waiting
for 2.4.22 with better ACPI support, as AFAICT ACPI is also about
IRQs. The patches from acpi.sf.net don't apply well to the debian
kernel sources.)
Who can tell me what to try next to get the card working?
Nadine
PS: I had the card working in my old laptop (also debian unstable) by
just plugging it in, so I strongly believe this is about bad
interaction between hardware and OS rather than about configuration.
