Very strange. Send it over for debugging :) I continued testing and found that neither MADIface nor the normal RME ExpressCard are recognized in a Thinkpad X200 (Centrino 2). pciehp always runs into the following: [ 757.159762] pciehp 0000:00:1c.3:pcie02: Card present on Slot(3) [ 757.183821] pciehp 0000:00:1c.3:pcie02: Card not present on Slot(3) [ 757.188186] pciehp 0000:00:1c.3:pcie02: Card present on Slot(3) [ 757.212205] pciehp 0000:00:1c.3:pcie02: Card not present on Slot(3) etc. And a while after removing the card, the machine crashes with colorful pixelart (never had that in a long time). Same on the IdeaPad S10 (ICH7). With the Thinkpad r61 (Ricoh Chipset), everything works as it should. So I figure these problems rather come from a broken pciehp driver and bad/missing chipset support than from the hdsp(m) driver itself.
