PCMCIA CardBus USB Adapter
Hi there,
though I browsed the archives I could not find a
solution to my problem. If it has been tackled, any
URL is a good URL. ;-)
My problem is this:
I'm in kinda situation and bound to use my old laptop,
an Compaq Armada 1500c. Unfortunately, the USB port is
broken. I bought a USB 2.0 Hi-Speed CardBus Adapter
PCMUSB20A and I'm trying to make it work.
I'm using
hotplug 0.0.200403
cardmgr 3.2.5
Linux 2.6.8-1-686 #1 Thu Oct 7 03:15:25 EDT 2004 i686
GNU/Linux
I didn't do anything yet, sorry, couldn't find any doc
on how to start installing the CardBus USB adapter.
When I insert it into the slot, /var/log/messages
displays:

after no-IRQ? Different ACPI or APIC settings may
help.
Then, I attach a USB stick and - it blinks! When the
standard USB port still worked, I was able to mount it
as /dev/sda1 - now, I can't access it, at least I
don't know how.
If you're still with me:
- How can I test if the adapter works?
- It doesn't seem to work, honestly, since I cannot
access the USB stick. Where can I find information on
how to make it work?
Thanks!
cu,
Tom
