Sadly I've done all that and I still get nothing. Hotplug's loading the firmware for other stuff so that seems to be working. Everything seems to be completely blind to the indigo. The problem seems to be quite low level - I don't get any response in dmesg when the card is inserted apart from an acknowledgment from pccard. On the working laptop I get messages from the yenta driver and then some ACPI stuff. I'm going to try messing with the kernel options to see if I that makes any difference. Any help with this will be welcome. Jonny www.jeremah.co.uk
