SubjectPCMCIA serial CardBus support vanished in 2.4.3-pre3 and later
Sorry to repost the issue but I got no reply...

2.4.3-pre3 and synced-up versions of the -ac series remove support for
PCMCIA serial CardBus. In drivers/char/pcmcia the Makefile and Config.in
files are modified to exclude serial_cb and the serial_cb.c file itself
is removed by the patch. As a net result, my Xircom modem port becomes
invisible to the kernel and I can't dial out through it.

As a temporary measure I backed out the changes in drivers/char/pcmcia
and my 2.4.3-pre4 kernel seems happy (in fact I am dialing out through
said Xircom modem).

Did I miss some announcement for replacement features for serial_cb or
did a bad patch slip in ?


Thanks & ciao,
