Hello.

I'm having some fairly major problems with 3.4 on my laptop, and I'd really
appreciate it if anyone could offer some suggestions.

I was running 3.3-PAO until yesterday, but I had hopes that I'd be able to
use `straight' -stable and so installed 3.4.

As far as I can tell, everything is fine EXCEPT with my Linksys Combo
PCMCIA EthernetCard (model EC2T).

I performed the upgrade from 3.3-PAO by removing /usr/src, installing the
sources fresh from the 3.4 CD, and doing a `make buildworld; make
installworld'.  I then built a new kernel (I based my kernel config file on
the new GENERIC and LINT) and ran mergemaster.  Everything looks fine, but
when I insert the Linksys card I get the message "driver allocation failed
for Linksys" on the console.

I noticed that pccard.conf.sample (which I copied to pccard.conf) said to
remove irq 5 from the list of available irqs if I have a builtin sound
card.  I do, so I did, but it made no difference.

Following are extracts from my config file and dmesg output; any additional
info will be supplied on request.  Thanks for any help.

Kernel config file:
===
controller	pnp0
...
device		apm0    at isa?

controller	card0
device		pcic0 at card?
device		pcic1 at card?
options		PCIC_RESUME_RESET
...
device		ed0	at isa? port 0x280 net irq 10 iomem 0xd8000
