Description jd1008 2011-07-06 02:46:45 UTC

I have a PCMCIA card with 2 sata ports and 2 usb2.0 ports.
It is dubbed the i-Connect, made by PPA Int'l. See
http://ppa-usa.com/computer-products/pcmcia/pcmcia-combo-usb-2-0-and-sata-cardbus.html

The hang occurs immediately after the device probe displays:

pcmcia_socket pcmcia_socket0: pccard: CardBus card inserted into slot 0

PS: The hang does not occur if I do not insert this card
into the slot. I have another pcmcia card with 2 eSATA ports
only, and it does not cause a hang.
