As soon as you have thise PCI/Cardbus support part patched up again, please send it to me and I'll test it. I fear that there is more brokenness in the call_usermodehelper stuff, but I hope I'm wrong. I really am looking forward to seeing what you and David Hinds come up with. I'll test it like crazy as soon as it's available.
