Actually the drivers are build into the kernel in my normal configuration, but even when I build them as modules, I still see the same behavior -- inserting a new card requires two insertions before the kernel recognizes them (even if the modules are already loaded in advance). I posted to the kernel mailing list, and got confirmation of this behavior from another user, but so far no one has discussed the reasons or solutions for it. I don't really care too much, since the cards do work eventually. I'm sure the issue will be resolved before the big commercial vendors start releasing their 2.6 versions. Chris -- Christopher S.
