Hi,

I actually planned on resolving this at Warpstock, but ran out of time
given all the other fun to be had.

Has anyone successfully used a Cisco 340 with a Thinkpad 770x?

The 340 is good.  It works in other systems.  The 770x has no problems
with the other PCMCIA and Cardbus cards that I happen to have.

The problem is that Socket Services refuses to allocate resources for the
340.  Using Veit's cscinfo, I can see it is not even powered on.

Thoughts anyone?

Thanks,

Steven

Which version of pccard are you running?  The first several releases of version 8 had some issues (can't remember if it was just that resources were not allocated or if the system hung).  All the issues I am aware of were finally resolved in the last release of version 8 but if you have one of the earlier releases or if there was something I haven't run into previously that is still not right with the latest release then maybe either a later version 8 release or the version 5 release may help.  Though, I do think this is a long shot as other pcmcia cards are working.  Also, which Cisco driver are you using?
I had a linksys pcmcia ethernet card that I had to modify the nif so that I could change the baseaddress as it conflicted with the socket services themselves on the default setting (which resulted in a full system hang though) so I am thinking in terms of changing settings at that level.
