Hi david, thanks for such a quick reply; i need an old 2.0.XX kernel so i can run oracle application server; i looked at logs and there is a difference, under 2.2.12 host options reports [pci irq 11] but under 2.0.37 it says [no pci irq]; is there a way to force it to use irq 11? or is it more complicated than this? thanks for your interest paulo

That part should not matter Re: Feedback: Untitled (Paulo Rodrigues) Date: 2000, Feb 03 From: David Hinds <dhinds@pcmcia.sourceforge.org>

The PCI interrupt assignment should not make a difference in this case. I would be more interested in whether the CE3B card is configured exactly the same in both cases (i.e., same interrupt and same IO port range). -- Dave

Ok: It didn't - but works now: removed apm support from the kernel Re: That part should not matter (David Hinds) Date: 2000, Feb 04 From: Paulo Rodrigues paulor

Hello David; indeed it didn't matter: the card had the same configuration under both kernels, irq 5 io 0x300; apart from the difference on that pci irq, there wasn't much in logs i could point at. But, looking at configured options, there was [pci] [cardbus] [apm] [pnp] under 2.2.12 and [pci] [cardbus] [apm] under 2.0.37; i rebuilt the kernel without apm support (can't poweroff on shutdown, but thats it :) and recompiled pcmcia: lo and behold, it works! thanks a million, David, and i hope this will benefit some one else (not likely, but...) cheers paulo
