[PlanetCCRMA] VXpocket problems

[jacob last]

Ok, I solved the unsupported card issue by adding device and card
entries to /etc/pcmcia/config for the vxPocket. now when I insert the
card, cardmgr correctly identifies it. But when cardmgr executes
"modprobe snd-vxpocket", vxloader says "no VX-compatible cards found".
Then everything recursively fails and cardmgr now says "get dev info
on socket 0 failed: Resource temporarily unavailable".

So the card is being recognized a bit further now but vxloader still
doesn't see it....any ideas?

Thanks very much

Jacob
