           Summary: kernel pcmcia and Netgear MA401 time out error
    Kernel Version: 2.6.20
            Status: NEW
          Severity: high
             Owner: linux-pcmcia at lists.infradead.org
         Submitter: hjh at passys.nl


Most recent kernel where this bug did *NOT* occur: 2.4.27 (with pcmcia-cs driver)
Distribution: Debian
Hardware Environment: IBM thinkpad i240
Software Environment: Linux
Problem Description: When plugging in a Netgear MA401 wireless networkcard, the
pcmcia socket only sends a time out error:
cs: pcmcia_socket0: time out after reset.

The following modules are loaded:
yenta_socket           24588  1
rsrc_nonstatic         11904  1 yenta_socket
pcmcia_core            36240  3 pcmcia,yenta_socket,rsrc_nonstatic

The pcmcia kernel loader works fine with a "normal" wired pcmcia network card
I also tried  2.6.18 kernel with the same result.
The 2.4.27 pcmcia kernel driver also yields the same result.

Steps to reproduce:
Install a 2.6.20 kernel, install pcmciautils
load the previously mentioned drivers, and plug in the card.
The only result is a time out on the pcmcia socket.


It seems that this is a widely known issue, just go to google and search for
"2.6 netgear MA401".
