The wedged irq is not the main problem, anyway 

Forum: PCMCIA Installation and Configuration Issues
Re: Sad: IRQ 11 wedged with 3.1.11/3.1.12 on Dell Inspiron 5000 (Scott Porter)
Date: 2000, Mar 10
From: David Hinds <dhinds@pcmcia.sourceforge.org>

The "PCI irq seems to be wedged!" message is telling you that a rogue
device is sharing that PCI interrupt, and is holding that interrupt
active, even though the driver for that device isn't loaded.  So the
PCMCIA drivers can't use the PCI interrupt: it will be continuously
triggered until that rogue device (whatever it is) is told to stop.

The wedged PCI interrupt is not really a problem, because the i82365
driver will automatically use ISA interrupts instead.  It does not
explain why one socket would not work.

If you insert a card in socket 1, what does "cardctl status" say?  You
say "nothing happens", so I assume you don't hear any beeps at all.
Does anything happen if you issue a "cardctl insert" command?

After a cold boot, with no cards inserted, can you also send me the
contents of /proc/bus/pccard/00/pci and /proc/bus/pccard/01/pci?

Message Administration

This form allows you to delete, move, or copy one or more messages. You can move messages by copying and deleting the original. The action will be applied to the messages you select above and all replies to those selected messages.


If you want to copy or move messages, specify the HyperNews path of a destination forum or message that all messages will be copied or moved to. The destination must already exist, so maybe create it first.

Path of Destination (a Forum or Message): (e.g. "test")

Notify Subscribers at destination
NO


If you want to delete messages (the default), specify that here. If you want to move messages, you need to delete the original messages; placeholders will be left pointing to where they were moved.

Delete Messages
NO


Caution: After deleteing messages (the default), if you have not copied them (i.e. no destination above), then the selected messages are not be recoverable.
