------- Comment #16 from [EMAIL PROTECTED]  2007-07-26 09:20 -------
For Greg and others: This the same text as I used in bug 7831,
so you do not have to read it again.

Many thanks for the report, I reviewed it and have this result:

The message

Bus #06 (-#09) is hidden behind transparent bridge #05 (-#05)

indicates that some PCI busses may not reachable by your system, but it is
very likely that if these buses are allocated to a CardBus slot.

In this (likely case), yenta-socket fixes this in current kernels,
and your drivers see your Cardbus cards. This means that when they
are shown in lspci, there is no real issue except that the too
sensitve check for this message needs to be fixed or the message
removed.

Unless you have PCI hardware (such as CardBus cards, not old PCMCIA cards)
connected to your machine which is not shown by lspci after loading all
neccessary drivers (eg. yenta_socket), we can close this bug:

I'd then go forward and simply propose to either delete this warning check
or to change to it a PCI-internal warning message which is normally supressed
and only enabled when developers debug PCI bus scanning and refine it a bit
so that it only is triggered in cases which are not addressed by yenta-socket.

Not that if a secific driver is not working, then this is not in relation
to this bug report, this bug report is only about PCI devices which may
potentially not show up in lspci and for which the driver also will never see.

Unless the PCI device is not shown in PCI, open a new bug if you have an
issue with a driver.

With your laptop, there would only be an issue if you connect an external PCI
enclosure which itself has further internal PCI busses thru your cardbus
slot to your laptop, but that case is also adressed by yenta-socket in
current kernels.

Again many thanks for the report and if I hear nothing new regarding this
bug report, I'll close it when the 'bus hidden behind bridge' message is fixed.
