Hi, Dominik!

I've tested your PCMCIA patches.  I applied pcmcia-2.5.67-all_debug to
Linux 2.5.67-bk6 and recompiled it.  There were no compile problems.

After reboot, I inserted modules pcmcia_core, yenta_socket and ds.
cardmgr won't start:

# cardmgr
cardmgr[1031]: no pcmcia driver in /proc/devices

I tried to insert different cards with no result.  I loaded patched
orinoco_cs and inserted one of the cards it supports.  No result.  Here
are the kernel messages:

ds: pcmcia_remove_card()

I don't know where to get socketctl.  I have unpatched hotplug-2002_04_01
from Red Hat 8.0.  But I guess the bad thing happens before hotplug is
needed.

resources_available is only set in store_resources_done(), but I haven't
seen the debug message from that function.
