Question: PCMCIA Initialization Errors 

Forum: PCMCIA on Toshiba laptops
Date: 2000, Jun 27
From: <mike@lonesomegeorge.com>

I am running Mandrake 7.0 on a Tecra 700CT.

I have tried to install PCMCIA services with both the original
 files and a new version 3.1.15.  I continue to receive the 
following message in my logs:

Jun 26 21:09:53 localhost pcmcia: Starting PCMCIA services:

Jun 26 21:09:54 localhost cardmgr[218]: exiting
Jun 26 21:09:54 localhost rc: Starting pcmcia succeeded


My config files are as follows:

#
# Local PCMCIA Configuration File
#
# 
System resources available for PCMCIA devices

#

include port 0x100-0x4ff, port 0x1000-0x17ff

include memory 0xd0000-0xdffff

include memory 0xa0000000-0xa0ffffff

#include memory 0x60000000-0x60ffffff




# Extra port range for IBM Token Ring
#



# Resources we should not use, even if they appear to be available
#

# First built-in serial port

exclude irq 4


# Second built-in serial port

exclude irq 3

# First built-in parallel port

exclude irq 7

exclude irq 12

exclude irq 5

exclude irq 14

exclude irq 15

# exclude irq 10

#
# Examples of options for loadable modules
#

# To fix sluggish network with IBM ethernet adapter...

#module "pcnet_cs" opts "mem_speed=600"

#
# Options for Xircom Netwave driver...

#module "netwave_cs" opts "domain=0x100 scramble_key=0x0"
#

# Options for IBM Token Ring adapters

#module "ibmtr_cs" opts "mmiobase=0xd0000 srambase=0xd4000"


I have tried a bunch of different memory ranges with no luck.

Startup files are as follows:

PCMCIA=yes

PCIC=i82365

PCIC_OPTS="cs_irq=9 irq_list=9,11 do_scan=0 pci_csc=1"

CORE_OPTS="probe_io=0"
CARDMGR_OPTS="-f"


Again, I have tried about every combination of these, with no luck.

Are the "Bad bridge mapping" and the "no devices in /proc" 
related, or do I have two problems on my hands?

Any ideas, or is this what I get for buying a Toshiba?
