: even with -I -i 11, pccardd won't put the ethernet on IRQ 11.

Right. This is a pci based notebook. On PCI notebooks using PCI
interrupt routing, you lose the ability to pick which interrupt each
card gets. The bridge assigns them. If you didn't do this, then you
would get interrupt storms.
Unless the card isn't working, then I'd say there's nothing wrong
here.
The ISA only parts (CL-PD6722, i82365, ricoh 396, etc) are what John
Hay was complaining about. I have a couple of laptops that are like
that and thought I'd tested things there, but obviously I missed
something.
