I am in the same boat as Tester. My laptop using kernels 2.4.8, 2.4.9,
and a few -ac patches locks every single time when yenta_socket loads.
Everything besides yenta_socket seems to work fine (so far). I
generally compile APM as a module and I am not loading it on boot, so
there are few modules loading on a raw boot. Perhaps I am required to
use some sort of PNP setup with 2.4.x? My stupid bios has absolutely
no settings regarding pcmcia/pccard. The only half-relevant option is
the "PNP OS Installed? Y/N". Using 2.2.19pre17 (stock Debian Potato
kernel) works generally fine with i82365/pcnet_cs loaded.
If anyone needs more h/w info or would like me to test patches I'd be
more than happy to help.
