IBM Tokenring problems on Dell Inspiron 8000



Hallo! 

I'm struggling to get this IBM Turbo 16/4 PCMCIA card to work on a 2.4.5
kernel. I'm using debian unstable and the pcmcia-cs 3.1.26 package. 

Strangely I get the card running with the default kernel 2.2.19pre17 of the
distro. 

When I start the token ring card under 2.4.5 with "/etc/init.d/pcmcia start"
I get 

                  ibmtr_cs:MapMemPage: Bad offset 

When I use the kernel pcmcia support I get a kernel panic something
complaining about an killing interupt handler. 

When I compile pcmcia-cs package by hand and add PnP BIOS resource checking
I get the Bad offset thing. 

My /etc/pcmcia/config.opts entries: 
                  ############################################# 
                  include port 0x100-0x4ff, port 0x1000-0x17ff 
                  include memory 0xc0000-0xfffff 
                  include memory 0xa0000000-0xa0ffffff, memory
0x60000000-0x60ffffff 
                  include port 0xa00-0xaff 
                  exclude irg 4 
                  exclude irq 7 
                  module "ibmtr_cs" opts "mmiobase=0xd4000 srambase=0xd8000
ringspeed=16 sramsize=16 irq_list=9" 
                  ############################################ 

I already tried to remove the whole module line, change values of the
mmiobase and srambase entries and remove them, set irq_list to different
values but no success, always the same output except when I hit an already
used IRQ. 

Thanx for any help!
