Subject: Problems with PCMCIA IDE interface in laptop
Date: Thu, 16 Aug 2001 14:04 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20010816210338Z267883-760+2564@vger.kernel.org> (raw)

I have been unable to get my laptop to work with a PCMCIA
IDE adapter.  Actually I've tried two, an EZ-GIG and another one
that I had from a couple years back.

The overall effect is:

Aug 15 17:33:27 parrotnoid cardmgr[506]: initializing socket 0 
Aug 15 17:33:27 parrotnoid cardmgr[506]: socket 0: ATA/IDE Fixed Disk 
Aug 15 17:33:27 parrotnoid cardmgr[506]: executing: 'modprobe ide-cs' 
Aug 15 17:33:28 parrotnoid cardmgr[506]: get devinfo on socket 0 failed: Resource temporarily unavailable 

What does the "resource temporarily unavailable" message mean?  Is this
a race condition?

Sometimes there is an additional line from cs about the memory
mapping, but that's all.  I never see any hd(x) messages from the kernel.

I have more comments in my posting to the sourceforge PCMCIA forum:

http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=33430

Basically I can see the card okay but the ide driver seems unable to
cope with it.

Machine is a FIVA MPC-206e.  Kernel is 2.4.8.  Using kernel PCMCIA and
up-to-date Card Services.
