From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4.1) Gecko/20031114 Description of problem: IBM G40 Thinkpad with Texas Instruments PCI1410 PC card Cardbus Controller. Single PCMCIA slot (room for larger cards, but only single connector). PCMCIA starts up and gives the warning: cardmgr[PID#]: Card Services release does not match Inserting cards does nothing. Tried a Cisco Aironet 350 (AIR-PCM352), Linksys Prism2 card (have not installed any third party drivers), and Iomega PCMCIA zip drive. Tried with rhgb inline and out removed from line. Tried with acpi=on, pci=noacpi, acpi=off and combinations of those with rhgb. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-pcmcia-cs-3.1.31-13 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install Fedora Core 1 2. Boot up 3. Insert Card Actual Results: Nothing happens with card, card not activated Expected Results: Card activated and surf internet Additional info: Works fine in Red Hat Linux 9 and RHEL 3
The 2.6.0-0.test11 kernel fixes these issues.
With upgrade to Fedora Core 2 Test 1 this has returned. :(
I have a similar problem on a fresh install of Fedora Core 2 with a Dell Latitude laptop. The PCMCIA Ethernet card is not visible, and "service pcmcia start" produces "no sockets found". Bug 116367 may be a duplicate of this bug; the workaround suggested there (manual "modprobe yenta_socket") appears to work.
Yes comment #3 is a dup of the 116367 bug

This is just that yenta_socket was not loading. I had previously loaded yenta_socket to no avail. The problem exists due to a BIOS Bug in my IBM laptop. There may in fact be a bug that prevented yenta_socket from loading but this is not that bug. The April 19, 2004 version of the BIOS for the IBM G40 fixes this problem.
