I had the pciehp driver installed, but it was a module and not loaded. I didn't have acpiphp enabled at all.

I guess all this work will be merged into mainline in due course, so I'll watch for them in 3.9 or later.

So I built them both as modules and planned to try both, pciehp only and acpiphp only. However, I've found that acpiphp will not load (regardless of whether or not pciehp is already loaded). What I get is: >>> >>> [chris:~]$ sudo modprobe acpiphp debug=1 >>> modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'acpiphp': No such device Are you sure you had pciehp already loaded? >>> >> >> Currently, If your hardware support pciehp native hotplug, acpiphp driver will be rejected when loading it in system >> (you can force loading it by add boot parameter pcie_aspm=off as Martin said). >> > > OK, thanks again for the advice. I've disabled the acpiphp driver. Pitty. For me only with acpiphp works detection of express card in the slot. With pciehp the PresDet is not updated properly upon removal/insertion and sometimes, probably as a result of the previous, PresDet on the SltSta: line of lspci is not correct. So I moved away from pciehp. I have a SandyBridge based laptop so I was hoping with your i5-based laptop you have also great chance to get rid of pciehp issues.
