Hi David,

Unfortunately I no longer have this hardware, so I can't re-test properly. From what I can remember, this machine didn't have PC Card sockets, so the i82365 driver would bail out, at which point those warning messages would appear.

I found this:

The patch appears to have landed in Linux 2.6.15-rc2 (search for "i82365"):

http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/testing/ChangeLog-2.6.15-rc2

So the issue is most likely resolved.

Additionally, I just tried "modprobe i82365" on a system with no PC Card sockets, running 2.6.16, and didn't get any warning messages (aside from the expected "Intel ISA PCIC probe: not found").
