PCMCIA card won’t work - ‘cs: warning: no high memory space available!’

by someguy on Jun.27, 2008, under Uncategorized

I recently found my 3G card, a Sierra Wireless Aircard 860 I use to connect to my cell carrier, not working after well over a year of flawless execution. Poking through syslog I found:

‘cs: warning: no high memory space available!’

and indeed, the card was not recognized when you put it in, which was new and unusual. After some trial and error and a lot of googling, this solved my problem:

Add this to /etc/pcmcia/config.opts

include memory 0x40000000-0x40000fff

Boom - now it works. Slide the card into the slot and instantly the TTy is assigned and I’m good to go.

My Hardware:
Dell Latitude D620
