Subject: Re: v0.8.4-rc3 - wifi problem which doesn't exist under kernel 2.6.15-hh0

Hello Jushua and Marcus,

thank you for your answers - I should have found the bug report myself...

I tried what you two suggested and I get a slightly different behaviour,
but the card still doesn't work. Now my dmesg output is:

pccard: card ejected from slot 0
hostap_cs: CS_EVENT_CARD_REMOVAL
pccard: PCMCIA card inserted into slot 0
pcmcia: registering new device pcmcia0.0
hostap_cs: setting Vcc=33 (constant)
hostap_cs: CS_EVENT_CARD_INSERTION
hostap_cs: setting Vcc=50 (from config)
Checking CFTABLE_ENTRY 0x01 (default 0x01)
Vcc mismatch - skipping this entry
0.0: GetNextTuple: No more items
prism2_config() failed

It seems vcc is still causing trouble...

ID's have been changed to the ones of my card:
ACTION=="add", SYSFS{manf_id}=="0x028a", SYSFS{card_id}=="0x0673",
SYSFS{func_id}=="0x06", RUN+="/sbin/modprobe hostap_cs ignore_cis_vcc=1"

Any suggestions what else to try?

Cheers,
Phil
