Hi, Here is the log. My card is single function device. it is correct that GetNextTuple fails for pcmcia0.1. since pcmcia0.1 does not exist. I think the reason of this problem is memory-leak or something. pcmcia: registering new device pcmcia0.0 pata_pcmcia 0.0: XXX ENTER pata_pcmcia 0.0: XXX resource loop, pass=0 pata_pcmcia 0.0: XXX resource loop, pass=0 scsi2 : pata_pcmcia ata3: PATA max PIO0 cmd 0xd100 ctl 0xd10e irq 4 ata3.00: CFA: , Ver.1.0, max PIO2 ata3.00: 32000 sectors, multi 0: LBA ata3.00: configured for PIO0 ata3.00: configured for PIO0 ata3: EH complete isa bounce pool size: 16 pages scsi 2:0:0:0: Direct-Access ATA Ver.
