Vivanco PCC USB 2.0 trips Dell Inspiron 2100's internal circuit breaker
Hello all, I recently purchased a Vivianco Cardbus to USB 2.0 adaptor (Model no. 14359), which is listed as linux compatible at http://www.qbik.ch/usb/devices/showctrl.php?id=69. Unfortunately as soon as I insert the card into the CardBus slot of my running Dell Inspiron 2100, the internal circuit breaker of my laptop trips. If I insert the card before powering on the laptop, the boot process makes it some way into the "Discovering Hardware" phase before tripping the circuit breaker. Presumably this is the point at which the OS attempts to initialize the card. The breaker is tripped even if I have no USB devices plugged into the adapter. I am running Debian Sarge with a custom built 2.6.4 vanilla kernel. Any ideas what could be going on here? Thanks, Aaron -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

If the card works on another laptop your computer might have some hardware problems. If it doesn't, I'd say the card is dead. You also might want to test the computer with another card to be sure it is not your laptop that is acting up. Even new hardware is known to be DOA, that is why there is a warranty. -- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
sarge on Acer doesn't boot
Hi, I installed Debian Sarge on my new Acer TM 4001WLMi, but after install it doesng boot. Only with parameter pci=off or pci=conf2 it boots otherwise it's freeze on message "linux agpgart interface" but pci deviecs doesn't work. I use kernel 2.6.8.1. Mandrake with the same verison of kernel boots good with acpi=off. Cheers, -- Pavel Novak -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
