pls notice the last line on the above 2 paragraphs. there is no wonder
that the last device was immediately 'seen' by the host adapter/system.
this is confirmed by
/proc/iomem
8c000000-8fffffff : PCI CardBus #06
90000000-93ffffff : PCI CardBus #06
90000000-90001fff : 0000:06:00.0
90000000-90001fff : ndiswrapper
no wonder that the pcmcia dx adapter was not identified/recognized on
the desktop setup; Ricoh pci-pcmcia adapter has different windows for
the pcmcia adapter slots.
is it possible to probe the pcmcia adapter through one of the Ricoh
adapter windows, or for that matter, on any host adapter windows and get
the pcmcia adapter memory read ?
sorry, I'm not the hottest mind when comes to probing adapters through
host adapters on pc busses. config.opts on /etc/pcmcia, apparently, in
these cases, is of no big help - the kernel has to take care of these
situations the way I understand.
