Help: PCMCIA problems on 2.2 -> 2.4 kernel upgrade



Anyone able to help on this one?

I used the Debian bootdisk 2.2.20-idepci kernel to set up on an old
laptop (Toshiba Tecra 740CDT).  I wanted to compile my own kernel,
tried the 2.4.23 kernel.  I used the kernel PCMCIA drivers, but
although the 2.2.20 PCMCIA modules worked perfectly (hence I can send
this email out to the world), the 2.4.23 modules give the following
error:

3c589_cs: RequestIRQ: Resource in use

Now, I've looked at the PCMCIA-HOWTO, but it doesn't make that much
sense to me.  Does anyone have any practical ideas about what I can do
to either debug the modules or, better still, to fix the problem?

Here's a piece of the kernel log file; it might help.  I can provide
other details on request.

Thanks!
