Hello,

I am looking for config files, kernel or boot
options, *anything* to help me to make the cardbus
bridge TI PCI1130 work with Red hat 9, or anything with
2.4 kernel.

Right now, lspci outpout says that its two pins
get both assigned interrupts 255. After that, it just
doesn't see any pcmcia card I plug in.

*If* possible, any workaround, however ugly, would
be preferable to recompiling stuff, since I have
only quite old and slow HW available these days.
If the solution does need patching the kernel, so be
it, please let me know it anyway.

Of course, don't hesitate to ask for any test I need to
run, which command output you need and so on.

Thank you in advance for any feedback!

If you send me the output of your lspci -xxx, I can try to put together a
script, consisting of several calls to setpci, which you would run before
loading the yenta driver. This is not a kernel issue, so, just mail me
offlist.
