The cardbus reservation method is actually flawed in setup-*.c if you want to get rid of the stuff in yenta.c - again, I've fixed this lot in my 2.5 tree already, and the patch is pending an update to the x86 code to do what yenta.c was doing (only setup bridge resources of the ones already programmed are bad/wrong.) -- Russell King (rmk@arm.linux.org.uk) The developer of ARM Linux http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/personal/aboutme.html
