Can you try upgrading to the latest (3.1.18) PCMCIA driver release? I have a suspicion that this might be a problem that is already fixed. -- Dave

Upgrade done, but nothing different... Re: Maybe a driver upgrade will help (David Hinds) Date: 2000, Jul 21 From: Alessandro De Salvo desalvo

I tried to upgrade to the lastest pcmcia card services (version 3.1.19, although the cardmgr says 3.1.11!) released yesterday, but the result is always the same, i.e. low transfer rate. I tried also to upgrade my kernel, so now I use the 2.3.99-pre9, but nothing happened. Here I post the syslog dump: Jul 21 16:04:16 ads kernel: Linux PCMCIA Card Services 3.1.11 Jul 21 16:04:16 ads kernel: options: [pci] [cardbus] [pm] Jul 21 16:04:16 ads kernel: Intel PCIC probe: Jul 21 16:04:16 ads kernel: Intel i82365sl DF ISA-to-PCMCIA at port 0x3e0 ofs 0x00, 2 sockets Jul 21 16:04:16 ads kernel: host opts [0]: none Jul 21 16:04:16 ads kernel: host opts [1]: none Jul 21 16:04:16 ads kernel: ISA irqs (scanned) = 3,4,11 polling interval = 1000 ms Jul 21 16:04:16 ads cardmgr[751]: starting, version is 3.1.11 Jul 21 16:04:16 ads cardmgr[751]: watching 2 sockets Jul 21 16:04:16 ads kernel: cs: IO port probe 0x1000-0x17ff: clean.
