Hostap + pcmciautils = ouchies

[James Lay]

Hey people!

So here it is.  I'm running 2.6.14.4 kernel.  Using the normal cardctl
pcmcia stuff hostap_cs and all the other hostap mods insert like a
champ..life is good.  Enter PCMCIAutils

http://kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/pcmcia/pcmcia.html

Using these with hotplug gives me the following when trying to insert
hostap_cs: (pasted long to improve clarity)

Anyway there it is.  Nuked hotplug from starting and chmodded rc.pcmcia
back to 0755 and all is right in the cosmos, but I think I'll just wait
a bit on upgrading anymore laptops with pcmciautils ;)
