Error Messages

Except as noted, these messages are specific to the Intel PRO/100 CardBus adapter. They are listed in strict numerical/alphabetical order, i.e., numbers appear before letters and messages starting with “The” are under the letter T, initial “A” or “An” under the letter A.

For an explanation of other messages that may appear on the screen, see the network-specific or computer-specific troubleshooting later in this chapter, as well as your computer and network operating system documentation.

A card was not detected in the selected slot.

The SOCKET keyword was used to force a particular slot, but no PRO/100 CardBus adapter was detected there.

A CardBus interface could not be found.

The driver was unable to detect a CardBus bridge. Some machines require that the CardBus Bridge be enabled through the system BIOS. Check with the laptop manufacturer to find out how to enable the CardBus Bridge.

A PCI IRQ could not be set, and none exists for this slot

If the PCIIRQ keyword has been used to force PCI IRQ routing, but the IRQ keyword has not been set, this message may occur if the driver cannot set or verify an interrupt through the PCI BIOS. This keyword effectively disables the ISA IRQ routing capability of the driver.

A working IRQ could not be found

The resource detection could not find a usable IRQ. Either the system has no available IRQ resources, or the available IRQ resources could not be configured for the CardBus Bridge.

A PRO/100 CardBus adapter could not be found

The driver was able to detect a CardBus Bridge, but there was no Intel PRO/100 CardBus adapter inserted into a slot.
