Then I just have to choose what I > need the most; irda or pcmcia :) I bet pcmcia works without hotplug ;-) IMHO the worst thing that might happen without hotplug would be one has to modprobe some drivers for CardBus cards by hand. But maybe I'm missing something because I'm not using hotplug... Anyway, I really hope the network-hotplug deadlock issue gets resolved before 2.6.0 or we'll see quite a number of such reports then... Martin
