Yep, that's what it sounds like to me too. I know my own laptop w/an expresscard slot requires having the pciehp driver loaded (which doesn't happen automatically in many kernels) before cards properly hotplug. The card itself should be no different than the pcie jmicron cards I've got, which work fine (at least w/the newer stack, not sure I've tried them w/the old one). -- Jarod Wilson [email protected] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: SourcForge Community SourceForge wants to tell your story. http://p.sf.net/sfu/sf-spreadtheword
