Hi to all.

I'm tring to use some Senao NL-2511CD with hostap, but it seems impossible to use them with hostap.

Here is my configuration:
Senao NL-2511CD PLUS EXT2 (primary 1.1, seconday 1.4.9) PCMCIA/PCI adaptec TI 1410 Based (LUCENT/ORINOCO)

MB Asus A7M266-D rev 1.04

the first problem I've found is IRQ assignment problem for the adapter (solved turning off plug and play OS in the bios)
the second problem regards memory probes

# Resources we should not use, even if they appear to be available

exclude irq 7

SOLVED ?!? adding "include memory 0xbc004000-0xbcffffff" in config.opts

...Now the system seems to recognize well the bridge but fails loading hostap_cs with this message:
