Description Matt Fuqua 2000-02-13 17:02:32 UTC 
I have a Compaq Armada 7800. If you try to start pcmcia it locks up the
machine. At first i did an Upgrade but i have also tried a fresh install.

I am also experiencing the same problem on an HP Omnibook 5500 w/3COM 3C589
ethernet nic doing an FTP install.  I get a lockup just after all the packages
are done installing.  Does the April 4th updated PCMCIA.img fix this?

I have the same Problem with my IBM Thinkpad 380X. The pcmcia loads without
problems but when I insert my PCMCIA Card (Xircom CEM33) it will crash and the
last entry in the logfile ist ...starting eth0. That's is.

6.9.5 has pcmcia-cs 3.1.19 which seems to be fixing all the outstanding cases.
Reopen it if not
