    My "BUFFALO" ("WLI-PCM-L11G") pccard stopped working recently on
    STABLE: (it is on the list of cards supported by the wi driver). Now
    pccardd refuses to allocate a driver.

    It is possible that some thoughtless use of mergemaster overwrote some
    necessary entries in {pccard,rc}.conf but I cannot remember having put
    anything relevant there myself.

    Until 1-2 month ago the card worked after inserting, removing and
    reinserting it. Now this produces the following messages: (the wi-1
    looks a bit strange)

    pccardd[61]: Card "BUFFALO"("WLI-PCM-L11G") [Version 01.01] [] matched
                    "BUFFALO" ("WLI-PCM-L11G") [(null)] [(null)]
    pccardd[61]: driver allocation failed for BUFFALO(WLI-PCM-L11G):
                    Device not configured
    /kernel: pccard: card removed, slot 1
    pccardd[61]: wi-1: BUFFALO (WLI-PCM-L11G) removed.
    /kernel: pccard: card inserted, slot 1

    and ps -alxww | grep pcc shows that /etc/pccard_ether wi-1 stop doesn't
    want to die

        0 61 1 0 10 0 464 344 wait Is ??
                    0:00.16 pccardd -z -f /etc/defaults/pccard.conf

                    1:30.07 /bin/sh - /etc/pccard_ether wi-1 stop

    I would be grateful for any suggestion.

    Thanks

    - Till
