hostap_cs: RequestIRQ: Resource in use

[Patrick Tran]

Gentle folks,

I am using a Netgear card and Dlink DWL 650 ( separately) and they were tested to work perfectly well on a Fujitsu laptop

Then this Netgear MA401 was tested on  a Twinhead laptop to set up a HostAP.

However, the wlan0 device can never be found and hostap failed to work. Dlink also faces the same problem.

Based on the error captured from dmesg, I guess there is some hardware conflict when HostAP driver tries to access an IRQ which is being used by other hardware component. 

Any ideas or solutions are highly appreciated.

Thank you 

Patrick Tran
