Hey guys.

I have a dell inspiron laptop and an Atmel wireless card. I installed the drivers, and I know that my card requires the module "pcmf502rd".
I know my card works, because I have had it working, but not it doesnt.

Firstly, on boot, I get this message:
Code:

cardmgr[3126]: socket 0: Actiontec wireless
cardmgr[3126]: executing modprobe pcmf502rd
cardmgr[3126]: bind "pcmf502rd" to socket 0 failed: Invalid argument

The driver IS loaded, as seen in lsmod:
Code:

Module         Size       Used by
pcmf502rd   82144    0


But what is strange is that when i try and re-insert the card, i get no beeps, and only this message on /var/log/messages:
Code:

Feb 11 17:47:42 credo kernel: cs: IO port probe 0x0c00-0x0cff: clean.
Feb 11 17:47:42 credo kernel: cs: IO port probe 0x0800-0x08ff: clean.
Feb 11 17:47:42 credo kernel: cs: IO port probe 0x0100-0x04ff: excluding 0x200-0x20f
Feb 11 17:47:42 credo kernel: cs: IO port probe 0x0a00-0x0aff: clean.

...and only nown and again i even get that.

The pcmcia port seems to be functioning, as shown by the command "cardctl ident":
Code:

Socket 0
product info: "WLAN", "802.11b PC CARD"
manfid: 0x0000, 0x0000
function: 6 (network)


So frustrating! It was working a while ago, until i upgraded my kernel from 2.6.0test11 to 2.6.0final (didnt change any configuration settings).

Cheers for the help.
