I'm having exactly the same problem with my WG511. My notebook uses
an AMI bios, which doesn't have a setting for disabling 'Plug and Play
Bios' either.

The exact message in dmesg is:

Loaded prism54 driver, version 1.0.2.2
PCI: Enabling device 0000:02:00.0 (0000 -> 0002)
PCI: No IRQ known for interrupt pin A of device 0000:02:00.0. Please try using pci=biosirq.
eth1: could not install IRQ handler
prism54: probe of 0000:02:00.0 failed with error -5

I'm using the kernel's own yenta_socket module but get this error anyway.

What kind of CardBus Bridge do you have (check the lspci output)? I have
the "OZ6912" from "O2 Micro". I have googled and found some people having
similar problems as me with this CardBus bridge so it might be a problem
of the CardBus bridge and not of the WG511.

Any suggestions on how to solve this? (I know that it has to work somehow,
because it does in Windows too!)
