I also checked my modprobe.d/ options, and I am using pciehp_force=1.
Without that flag, none of this ever works.
OK - I suspected something like this. Most Dell computers don't support
ExpressCard hotplug using Native PCIe -- in fact, I've not seen a single
one, they explicitly disable it because they have not validated it or
they have and something didn't work right. I'll take a look at what
you've
got, but be aware that you are forcing pciehp to load and operate on a
system
where they've certainly either not tested it, or tested it and something
bad happened.
Perhaps. But this one works perfectly, except for two driver bugs:
1. Driver does not notice already-inserted cards after modprobe.
2. Driver fails to function after suspend/resume until reloaded.
Both of those are fixable in the kernel.
Ahh.. point 2 in particular suffers from "suspend/resume" not implemented.
Or rather, implemented as a pair of "do nothing" functions.
