I've been having this problem with all of the kernels I have tried in
the 2.1.x series (i.e most of 2.1.6x, 2.1.7x). I am using
pcmcia-cs-2.9.12.
Has anyone else seen this problem, or has anyone successfully used a
8390 based PCMCIA ethernet card with a recent kernel? Any ideas?
Below is the Oops from the 2.1.72 kernel (thanks to the serial console
support). Since ksymoops has problems with glibc, I ran it on a Sparc
(and, hence, have no disassembly). I've added comments about the
unresolved addresses (prefixed with "***").
