http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=623638 http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=623638#c1 --- Comment #1 from Bernd Paysan <bernd.paysan@gmx.de> 2010-07-19 21:13:28 UTC --- I found a way to disable pcmcia, by moving the pcmcia_core.ko module to pcmcia_core.ko.disable (pretty brutal and requires booting a rescue kernel). This at least stops the system from crashing, and only renders my pcmcia card (and the SD card reader) useless. Correction: The last line to be seen actually is [<time>] pcmcia_socket pcmcia_socket0: cs: memory probe 0x100000000-0xfcffffffff: (one zero less) If time permits, I'll try to do some more debugging - the questionable routine is do_mem_probe in /usr/src/linux/drivers/pcmcia/rsrc_nonstatic.c (not for today). -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

There's no probing of an address space >32 bit anymore. The SD card reader works - no test with other pcmcia cards. I consider this as resolved, "worksforme" for now, "fixed" when the 017 version is in the update repository. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

For whatever reason, after I installed the currently available updates, it fails again (tries to access the pcmcia cards beyond 32 bit addresses). The pcmciatools still are at version 017 (checked, reinstalled), but they don't help anymore. The temporary fix now again for me is to rename yenta_socket.ko to yenta_socket.ko.disable in the /lib/modules/<version>/kernel/driver/pcmcia directory. I will check out which particular update causes the problem. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

But only if it is definitely fixed (see comment #6). Can you confirm it?

Bernd, can you still observe the problem if you apply all updates to 11.3 and then install the pcmciautils 017 ? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Yes, I can still observe the problems with the current set of patches (as of today). So at the moment, we need a better fix.

Would it be possible to upgrade to 11.4 ? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
