    Hi,

    PCMCIA is broken in linux-2.4.0-test5 because the yenta and pci_socket
    modules have a mutual dependency problem:

      root@arthur:~ #insmod pcmcia_core
      Using /lib/modules/2.4.0-test5/pcmcia/pcmcia_core.o
      root@arthur:~ #insmod pci_socket
      Using /lib/modules/2.4.0-test5/pcmcia/pci_socket.o
      /lib/modules/2.4.0-test5/pcmcia/pci_socket.o: unresolved symbol yenta_operations_Re8fcb4ba
      root@arthur:~ #insmod yenta
      Using /lib/modules/2.4.0-test5/pcmcia/yenta.o
      /lib/modules/2.4.0-test5/pcmcia/yenta.o: unresolved symbol cardbus_register

    Everything worked fine with linux-2.4.0-test5-pre3.

    Hardware: ASUS P6300 notebook, mobile PII 266, 80MB.
    Software: SuSE linux 6.4.
