Description carlosfm 2013-06-15 13:58:29 CEST

Description of problem:
On my laptop,I have a CF card on a PCMCIA adapter and it is not recognized.
It doesn't show on Gparted, doesn't show on Thunar.
BTW, I have Mageia 4 (Cauldron) with XFCE. It didn't work either on Mageia 3.

The command "lspcmcia" returns nothing.

For instance, on Fudunto (where it works, and also on Porteus), lspcmcia returns:

Socket 0 Bridge:      [yenta_cardbus]    (bus ID: 0000:0f:06.0)
Socket 0 Device 0:   [pata_pcmcia]      (bus ID: 0.0)

In Mageia I see that the "yenta_socket" module is loaded, in the hardware devices.

"journalctl -b" returns this error:

acer-mageia kernel: yenta_cardbus 0000:0f:06.0: no bus associated! (try 'pci=assign-busses')

I've tried the pci=assign-busses kernel boot parameter.
When booting, there's an immediate kernel panic.

This happens at least in Mageia 3 and Mageia 4 (Cauldron).

Mageia 3 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status 4 months ago.
http://blog.mageia.org/en/2014/11/26/lets-say-goodbye-to-mageia-3/ 

Mageia 3 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Mageia
please feel free to click on "Version" change it against that version of Mageia
and reopen this bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.

Hello Marja,

This bug was resolved long ago, it doesn't happen anymore.
Sorry, I should have given the feedback, back then.
You can close the bug as resolved.

Regards and thanks for your great work.
