The problem appears to be in the PCMCIA-CardBus bridge not being able to assign an IRQ. I am uncertain if this is in the yenta driver code or in the PCI systems code. so I do not know who to even ask for direct assistance in correcting the problem. I have heard the yenta driver is linus' but I do not know if the problem is before it loads or during. any assistance would be appreciated. Rober Bisping
