Problem with TI-1410 cardbus controller and Compaq presario 1201z laptop

[Sreenivasa]

Hi,

I've a Compaq Presario 1201z laptop with Athlon 900MHz processor, 320MB RAM. It
has a pcmcia laptop driven by TI-1410 controller. My system has a Fedora-Core 3
installation (2.6.9 kernel).

I wanted to use a 32-bit cardbus firewire/USB2.0 combo card in the pcmcia slot.
However, my laptop doesnot recognize this card. This card is also not
recognized in windows xp. The same card works in my friend's sony viao.

Recently, I upgraded my system to 2.6.11 kernel anticipating that some updates
in the kernel might help in the detection of this firewire/USB2.0 combo card.
No - it did not help either.

I tried several methods that helped people with the TI-1410 controller. None of
these helped me.

Here is the info provided by "lspci -vv" for the cardbus controller on my
machine.

 00:0a.0 CardBus bridge: Texas Instruments PCI1410 PC card Cardbus Controller

         Subsystem: Compaq Computer Corporation: Unknown device b103

         Memory window 0: 14400000-147ff000 (prefetchable)

         BridgeCtl: Parity- SERR- ISA- VGA- MAbort- >Reset+ 16bInt+ PostWrite+
         16-bit legacy interface ports at 0001
 
Does the above info mean that the controller only supports 16-bit ports? Since
TI-1410 supports 32-bit devices, how can I get my laptop recognize this card?

I would appreciate some help.

Best regards
