Hi. I don't really have any experience with the problem that your friend is having, but I was just reading the other day about using PCMCIA on Toshiba Notebooks (http://www.cck.uni-kl.de/misc/tecra710) and maybe I can help you. Basically, they say on this page that the PCMCIA bus gets it's notification of new cards using IRQ 12, and that the PS2 mouse also uses IRQ 12. Fortunately, there is a way to make the PCMCIA modules use a different IRQ - quoting from the URL I've listed: "Add cs_irq=11 to insmod i82365 in the PCMCIA startup files (potentially in /sbin/init.d, /etc/rc.d/init.d, or /etc/init.d, depending on your distribution) to use IRQ 11. This is probably a variable like PCIC_OPTS or something like this. You can't change this setting in the cardmgr's configuration files in /etc/pcmcia." In debian, at least with the PCMCIA 2.8.something packages, the file to look at is /etc/init.d/pcmcia, and there is a variable PCIC_OPTS, I believe. Good luck.
