aironet4500_card (2.4.1-ac8), The PCI BIOS has not enabled this device!

Hi,

When I insmod aironet4500_core and aironet4500_card, the last one
disables the pci342 nic (the leds go out).

root@tilde:~# uname -r
2.4.1-ac8
root@tilde:~# insmod aironet4500_core
Using /lib/modules/2.4.1-ac8/kernel/drivers/net/aironet4500_core.o
Warning: /lib/modules/2.4.1-ac8/kernel/drivers/net/aironet4500_core.o
symbol for parameter rx_queue_len not found
root@tilde:~# insmod aironet4500_card
Using /lib/modules/2.4.1-ac8/kernel/drivers/net/aironet4500_card.o

This is in /var/log/syslog:

Until I insmod the aironet4500_card, the yellow led is on. A rmmod
doesn't change a thing. According to the documentation, both leds off
means "no power" or "an error". -ac7 is the same (there is extra stuff
for aironet4500 in -ac8).

I compile the kernel on a different computer, and then transfer bzImage,
the modules directory and System.map to the computer with the pci card. 
I don't think it should make a difference though.

Can I provide more info on this? What can I do to help to solve this?

Sorry, no time to test, neither I have cisco cards.

However, general notes:

	1. Aironet did (cisco may do) weird tricks on bus.
	2. insmod driver  -> leds go out, that may be  normal.
		ifconfig up should bring leds on.
	3. People who fail with both drivers (Bens and mine), have
	 had weird BIOS or BIOS settings in most of cases. 
	  IO conflict with bios configuration port (ICL  486 ),
	  old PCI BIOS (Intel Pentium 200Mhz board) , etc.
