It is a BIOS bug; there is a workaround

It is a BIOS bug and the fix is given in thread #42 on this list. You want to set: CORE_OPTS="cb_mem_base=0x20000000" in /etc/sysconfig/pcmcia, because your BIOS has mapped your CardBus bridge into the middle of your system memory. You also need to have a fairly new set of PCMCIA drivers to handle this fix; 3.1.15 is current. -- Dave

That fixed one thing, the other is still broken Re: It is a BIOS bug; there is a workaround (David Hinds) Date: 2000, Jun 07 From: John Auer jaa

Thanks, Dave. The cb_mem_base problem is now gone. But I still get "timed out during reset" errors like: Jun 7 12:49:50 debian kernel: cs: socket 1 timed out during reset Rebooting (into Linux) hasn't fixed this.

1. Ok: solved by John Auer, 2000, Jun 07
