Debian Users,
I sent a similar message a few days back, but I don't believe it was
ever posted to the list. A second effort...
I've been trying to use my PCMCIA wireless network card on my laptop,
but whenever I insert the card, I get the message:
orinoco_cs: RequestIRQ: Resource in use
I think this is probably because of the large number of devices using
IRQ 10 on my machine:
cat /proc/interrupts
CPU0
0: 533785 XT-PIC timer
1: 3989 XT-PIC keyboard
2: 0 XT-PIC cascade
5: 0 XT-PIC Maestro3(i)
8: 1 XT-PIC rtc
10: 18517 XT-PIC Texas Instruments PCI4451 PC card Cardbus Controller, Texas Instruments PCI4451 PC card Cardbus Controller (#2), usb-uhci, eth0
14: 26764 XT-PIC ide0
NMI: 0
ERR: 0
I'm using a 2.4.21 kernel I compiled myself, but my 2.4.20 kernel
behaves the same. I know this card worked once upon a time (I think
with the 2.4.20). How can I make the card or the controller use a
different IRQ? Is there a manual I should be reading? Could my problem
be caused by other software?
Thanks for any help,
Nate
