System Freeze with Kernel 2.6.0-test5 and PCMCIA 3Com

[Daniel Luebke <lkml@daniel-luebke.de>]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 740 bytes --]

Hi everybody!

I just wanted to give the Kernel 2.6-test series a try and 
(un)fortunately I might be able to help by reporting a bug:
I'm using a HP Omnibook XE3, PIII, 256MB RAM, running without any 
problems under 2.4.21 (Debian/unstable).
However, when using 2.6.0-test5 and inserting a PCMCIA card, namely a 
3COM NIC (3CSH572BT, whoever invents such model names...), my system 
freezes without kernel oops (no flashing lights etc.) but only printing 
the line
cs: memory probe 0x0c0000-0x0fffff: excluding 0xc0000-0xcbfff

I attached the information about my system both for 2.4.21 (with 
inserted card) and for the 2.6 (obviously without card :-)

If some more information is needed please mail me.

With best regards

Daniel Luebke
