From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041111 Firefox/1.0 Description of problem: In runlevel 5, when the pcmcia plug is detected and driver loaded, the computer freezes. Tailing /var/log/messages I can see bluetooth configuration loaded but hangs inmediately. In runlevel 3, with the pcmcia adapter plugged from start, I get a kernel panic with this messages, when system is loading eth0 device: "kernel panic - not syncing: drivers/serial/serial-core.c:475: spin-lock ( drivers/serial/serial-core.c:c040f3c0) already locked by drive rs/serial/8250.c/1170" Before this, pcmcia was not loading the correct driver for my CBT100C, and manually added info to /etc/pcmcia/bluetooth.conf in this way: >>card "Conceptronic CBT100C Bluetooth" version "PCMCIA", "Bluetooth Card", "", "" manfid 0x0279, 0x950b bind "serial_cs" class "bluetooth" << Replaced a line in /etc/pcmcia/bluetooth too: From >>/usr/sbin/hciattach /dev/$DEVICE $MANFID To >>sleep 5 ; /usr/sbin/hciattach /dev/$DEVICE bcsp This changes runs well for previous kernel 2.6.9-1.667, then I that this changes are not the source of hang Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.6.10-1.760_FC3 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Change pcmcia config to detect and load correct drivers for CBT100C 2. Reboot computer or reload pcmcia 3.Plug CBT100C pcmcia card Actual Results: When plugin pcmcia CBT100C system freezes if it's running. if it's booting, seems to load correctly pcmcia but gives a kernel panic when trying to load eth device Expected Results: When plugin CBT100C must be able to use bluetooth device. Additional info: Computer it's a Dell D800, but as I said before, with previous kernel CBT100C runs ok. Seems to be something related to only kernel-2.6.10-1.760_FC3
