PCMCIA warning

1999-04-29 Thread marvin stodolsky
With a 2.036 kernel and a US Robotics 33.6 modem + ethernet PCMCIA card,
the warning below (marked by  ) during boot, and as later displayed
by dmesg.
Manifest decrease in functionality is not evident, but it would be nice
to understand it.

Linux PCMCIA Card Services 3.0.5
  kernel build: 2.0.35 #1 Wed Nov 11 00:04:34 EST 1998

tty00 at 0x03f8 (irq = 9) is a 16550A

Grepping the source code reveals:

stodolsk:/usr/src/modules/pcmcia-cs# grep cs: warning */*  
grep: clients/patches: Is a directory
grep: etc/cis: Is a directory
grep: include/linux: Is a directory
grep: include/pcmcia: Is a directory
modules/rsrc_mgr.c: printk(KERN_NOTICE cs: warning: no high memory
space 
stodolsk:/usr/src/modules/pcmcia-cs# 

Any insight as to what the warning reflects.
