This is a second post, (with minor revisions)  If I receive no reply
this time I'll post no more on this problem.

Thanks for all your past help!


I have a Dell Lattitude CPi with a docking station and a 3COM
3CCM156 modem.

If I'm not docked I can use the modem, when I am docked it complains:
driver allocation failed for 3COM

This is a dmesg diff:

 PC-Card VLSI 82C146 (5 mem & 2 I/O windows)
 pcic: controller irq 9

The pccard.conf has irq 10 as the default for the modem. I change it to 8
(to avoid conflict with xl0) and it won't work docked or undocked, even
thouth the dumpcis seems to say it should work with irq 8.

here is pccardc dumpcis:
