I'm running Debian 2.2 (potato) with kernel 2.2.18pre18 + VM_GLOBAL
patch on a Dell Latitude CPt, with a 3CXEM556 10Mbps LAN + 56K PCMCIA
card.

I just built my 2.2.18pre18 kernel, then built the pcmcia modules, both
using Debian's kernel-package utility (make-kpkg). The pcmcia modules
were built from pcmcia-source 3.1.22-0.1potato. After replacing the old
custom-built modules package, I then upgraded my pcmcia-cs package as
well to 3.1.22-0.1potato.

I edited a few of the files in /etc/pcmcia to reflect the options I was
using with the previous version. The LAN adapter works fine when I
manually run /etc/pcmcia network start eth0 so it appears there is no
problem with that. Examining the new serial.opts and the old, I see no
significant differences. However, on boot configuration of the serial
interface, I get serial_cs: RequestIO: No more items.

Attempting to run /etc/pcmcia/serial by hand, no matter what I try for
options all I get is the usage message.

The previous serial interface was at IRQ3, 0x100.

Some snippets:
