PCMCIA configuration on a 15inch AlBook



I have a 1.25 ghz 15 inch AlBook that is running Debian Unstable,
and the 2.6.1-rc1-ben1 revision of the kernel, and am having
problems getting PCMCIA to work on the machine.

I have the  PCMCIA, ISA, and the cardbus drivers compiled into the
kernel, and pcmcia-cs 3.2.5-1 is installed on the machine, but I
cannot get the Cisco AIRNET 350 or the Linksys WPC11v3 cards to be
recognized by cardctl at all.

Out of the box I receive the following error messages:
  Starting PCMCIA services: cardmgr[4650[: watching 1 socket
  cs: IO port probe 0x0c00-0x0cff:<7>IN from bad port c00 at c014eb50
    excluding<7>IN from bad port c08 at c014ec34
    nothing: probe failed
  cs: IO port probe 0x0800-0x08ff:<7>IN from bad port 800 at c014eb50

    excluding<7>IN from bad port a08 at c014ec34

done.


I've tried a number of different variations of the commented and
uncommented  config options in the /etc/pcmcia/config.opts,
different config.opts files I've found for other machines, and I 
tried generating my own port and memory values based off of the
output of lspci -v, but while I can get values that down emit
errors, I still can't get cardctl to identify the device, nor will
it try loading the driver.

cardctl ident always emits:
PRODID_1=""
PRODID_2=""
PRODID_3=""
PRODID_4=""
MANFID=0000,0000
FUNCID=255

and cardctl status emits:
Socket 0:
  5V 16-bit PC Card
  function 0: [ready], [bat low]

lspci returns: ( edited to just contain the pcmcia info )
01:13.0 CardBus bridge: Texas Instruments PCI1510 PC card Cardbus Controller
        Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 168, IRQ 53
        Memory at a0004000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K]
        Bus: primary=01, secondary=02, subordinate=05, sec-latency=176
        Memory window 0: 90000000-9ffff000 (prefetchable)
        Memory window 1: f3200000-f33ff000 
        I/O window 0: 00001000-000010ff
        I/O window 1: 00001400-000014ff
        16-bit legacy interface ports at 0001

I'm at a loss for where to proceed from here on getting this
thing up and running, anyone have suggestions? 

  Greg
