I have STFW.  The only references that made sense to me (I have limited Linux
PCMCIA experience) discuss replacing the old ide_cs with ide-cs in
/etc/pcmcia/config.  In my version of this file, they all already say ide-cs.

Under 8.0, the same hardware works, and I get the following in /var/log/messages

Comment 1 Kevin Sonney 2003-08-21 03:08:32 UTC

I've verified this on Severn 2.4.21-20.1.2024.2.1.nptl with a PCG-SRX77 laptop
and a PCGA-CD51 cdrom I have on loan from a friend. 

Additionally, the PCGA-CD51 ide cdrom in question gives the same error on
different HW. In the case of the second box, it's a PCI PCMCIA controller on an
athlon system. This would seem to indicate to me that the issue is in ide-cs,
and not the laptop in question.

I've got the cdrom on loan until 8/21/2003.

Comment 2 Andrew Parker 2003-08-21 11:05:42 UTC

I've had a couple of emails from other people experiencing this problem.  The
most notable from Brian McGurk:

=======================>

Well I discovered I could make the process get further by commenting out
line 30 in /etc/pcmcia/config.opts:
  exclude port 0x380-0x3ff
I now get this when I insert the CDROM:
  Mar 13 10:44:26 move cardmgr[4868]: executing: 'modprobe ide-cs'
  Mar 13 10:44:29 move kernel: hde: TOSHIBA CD-ROM XM-7002Bc, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive
  Mar 13 10:44:29 move kernel: ide2 at 0x180-0x187,0x386 on irq 3
  Mar 13 10:44:29 move kernel: ide-floppy driver 0.99.newide
  Mar 13 10:44:29 move kernel: ide_cs: hde: Vcc = 5.0, Vpp = 0.0
  Mar 13 10:44:29 move cardmgr[4868]: executing: './ide start hde'
However, if I try to mount it, or event eject the card the machine hangs. I think
it's progress but maybe I'm deluding myself. That ide-floppy should not be appearing
and the ide_cs should be ide-cs. I'll let you know if I find out anything more.

<=======================

The specific port that is causing the problem is 0x386.  Specifically including
that port and excluding the others in that line gives me the same results as Brian.

Back in the dim and distant past, when the CD ROM was not recognised by the
installer, I used to have to pass 'ide2=0x180,0x386' to the kernel.

I too get the problem with severn.

Comment 3 Dave Jones 2003-09-03 12:09:29 UTC

FWIW, I _still_ have to pass 'ide2=0x180,0x386' on the boot command line with my
Vaio with severn. I have the exact same model vaio as Andrew. Additionally I
have to pass pci=off.  Far from perfect, and a better workaround would be nice
to have, but it does seem to work for me at least.
What I haven't tried is plugging the cdrom after booting and trying to make that
work. I would suspect that's what the difference is here?

Comment 4 Dave Jones 2005-01-17 07:52:56 UTC

is this any better with current releases ?
Sadly, my vaio got stolen, so I can't test this any more.

Comment 5 tk 2005-01-27 23:20:21 UTC

unfortunately not!

when inserting cdrom (vaio z600 lek) on running FC3 (kernel
2.6.9-1.681_FC3) i get:

Jan 28 00:13:26 localhost cardmgr[1672]: socket 0: Ninja ATA
Jan 28 00:13:26 localhost kernel: ide-cs: GetNextTuple: No more items
Jan 28 00:13:26 localhost cardmgr[1672]: get dev info on socket 0
failed: No such device

last time it worked was under red hat 8 - would be nice if this could
finally get fixed!

Comment 6 Dave Jones 2005-02-13 06:02:40 UTC

can you try editting /etc/pcmcia/config.opts

where it says..
# Radeon ICP MCE's if you touch ports 380 to 3ff
exclude port 0x380-0x3ff

change that last line to..
exclude port 0x3b0-0x3ff

Comment 7 Andrew Parker 2005-02-13 11:55:58 UTC

This certainly has a positive effect.  It is now possible to mount the drive
(hurrah!), but there is no characteristic beeping. /var/log/messages gives the
following when inserting the card

this is with a cd in the drive at the time.

when mounting the CD (which worked), i get

Feb 13 06:35:34 vaio kernel: udf: registering filesystem
Feb 13 06:35:39 vaio kernel: UDF-fs: No VRS found

I've searched my system (running Tettnang), and there is no ide file, or
ide_info file, apart from a japanese man page on ide_info.

i tried this a few times, and once it got really upset whilst shutting down
spewing outmessages way too fast to read, and I don't know at what point it did
this.  power off was the only choice.

Comment 8 Andrew Parker 2005-03-17 00:57:50 UTC

FC4 test 1 also has problems.  I get no beeps at all when inserting/removing the
CDROM.  Here's what I get in /var/log/messages (note the times, there are a few
big gaps in there)

Comment 9 Pete Zaitcev 2005-05-13 17:34:35 UTC

So, what is in dmesg after the attempt to mount? "dmesg | tail -10"?

Comment 10 Andrew Parker 2005-05-14 12:15:04 UTC

dmesg doesn't change from the mount:

Comment 11 Dan Williams 2005-06-18 01:31:15 UTC

Andrew: is this the CD drive that has the PCMCIA card that you can snap into the
bottom of the drive for carrying around, that came with 700Mhz or so VAIOs?

ex - http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=80198&item=6778105198

If so we may have that drive here around the office to be able to test with.

Comment 12 Andrew Parker 2005-06-19 09:00:34 UTC

Yes, that's the one.  Don't know if there are multiple models of this, but the
one in the example you cite is the exact same model (PCGA-CD51)

Comment 13 Dan Williams 2005-06-20 16:28:02 UTC

Ok, we do have this one.  The drive appears to work correctly on FC4.  I will
test it on an FC3 machine tonight.  When the PCMCIA card is inserted, it's
recognized, cardmgr runs ide start hde 2>&1, which attempts to mknod /dev/hde b
33 0, and fstab-sync correctly mounts the drive at /media/cdrom1.  CD in the
drive gets automounted and shows up on the desktop.  (tested with 2.6.11-1.1315_FC4)

FC3 may be different.  What FC3 kernel versions are people using?

Comment 14 Dan Williams 2005-06-21 01:06:53 UTC

Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.11-1.27_FC3 #1 Tue May 17 20:27:37 EDT 2005 i686
i686 i386 GNU/Linux

/var/log/messages contains the following after inserting the PCMCIA card
attached to the drive:

Jun 20 20:58:22 localhost cardmgr[2580]: socket 0: Ninja ATA
Jun 20 20:58:23 localhost cardmgr[2580]: get dev info on socket 0 failed: No
such device
Jun 20 20:58:23 localhost kernel: 0.0: GetNextTuple: No more items

Now trying the modification to /etc/pcmcia/config.opts...

Comment 15 Dan Williams 2005-06-21 01:30:03 UTC

For FC3, this is the output when plugging in the card _after_ doing the Radeon
config.opts fix:

The CD in the drive mounts, and the CD Player application opens.

Comment 16 Dan Williams 2005-06-21 01:34:25 UTC

Ejecting the card doesn't really work though.  PCMCIA services hang, as does
'cardctl eject' (after ejection).  Evidently cardmgr isn't getting the eject event.

Comment 17 Andrew Parker 2005-06-21 08:04:45 UTC

I had not upgraded my kernel, so it was the original FC3 kernel -
kernel-2.6.11-1.1369_FC4.i686.rpm

I've, briefly, tried this on FC4, and I can mount/umount ok.  I do not get the
characteristic insert/eject beeps (but this is my only PCMCIA device, so I'm not
sure if I'm supposed to?).  Also don't know the significance of the
/sbin/ide_info error

under fc4, cardctrl eject is eratic.  the first time i tried it never returned:

after a reboot though, i was quite happy to eject (subject to ide_info):

Fedora Core 3 is now maintained by the Fedora Legacy project for security
updates only. If this problem is a security issue, please reopen and
reassign to the Fedora Legacy product. If it is not a security issue and
hasn't been resolved in the current FC5 updates or in the FC6 test
release, reopen and change the version to match.

Thank you!

Comment 19 John Thacker 2006-10-29 20:45:29 UTC

Closing per lack of response to previous comment.  FC3 and FC4 are supported for
