Knoppix freezes booting when starting the cardmgr. when booting via 'knoppix nopcmcia' it just boots up perfectly... just zero pcmcia
edit1: running knoppix 3.8, kernel 2.6.11, 'knoppix nopcmcia'
the pcmcia controller should be a Texas Instruments x515 with integrated 5in1 smartcard reader
if you need more system specs just let me know, i will answer asap, as i want to get this working asap
