Hi Richard,

I struggling trying to get pcmcia-cs to work as well but I may be able
to help here.

My understanding is that the PC-Card controller does not require a
fixed IRQ and port.  The numbers you received from the dos utility are
simply those used at that moment.  You can define which resources to
use and exclude in the config.opts (which is read by my installation)
but I doubt that is the problem.

What exactly are the symptoms?
