[Bug 54294] Re: Failed to allocate mem resource #6 ...

[Michel Brabants]

Hello,

I also experience this bug. Unlike others it blocks me from loading the
rt2x00-driver (which causes the error). I am using kernel 2.6.22.9 for
x86-64 (Archlinux, so almost vanilla).

Here is the error-message:

PCI: Unable to reserve mem region #1:8000 at febf8000 for device 0000:03:00.0
rt2x00pci -> rt2x00pci_probe: Error - PCI request regions failed.
rt61pci: probe of 0000:03:00.0 failed with error -16

The pci-region which it seems to affect (cat /proc/iomem):
feb00000-febfffff : PCI Bus #03
  febf7400-febf74ff : 0000:03:03.0
    febf7400-febf74ff : r8169
  febf7800-febf7fff : 0000:03:02.0
    febf7800-febf7fff : ohci1394
  febf8000-febfffff : 0000:03:00.0
    febff000-febff7ff : pnp 00:0a

The only thing that takes up the memory-region is pnp, which shouldn't
blocks other drivers I suppose? Well, I have to say that the loading of
this module worked before (quite some time ago). I also upgraded my bios
in the meantime. I updated it to the latest version during the weekend
(1.7) and the problem remains. My motherboard is the MSI K9A Platinum. I
have a radeon (r300)-graphics-card (pci-express) btw. My only problem
with my hardware is that the rt2x00 (pci-card) doesn't load because of
this error.

"lspci -vvv"-output of my wlan-pci-card:
