Hi Folks, If anyone read my earlier message, I have resolved my problem of how to get the PCMCIA stuff onto a laptop without a CD-ROM or anything like that (just coppied them off my windoze machine onto a floppy and mounted it as vfat on debian).
Now I'm wondering if anyone has had any luck with getting a D-Link DE-660 PCMCIA ethernet card running under linux? This card is not on the supported list, but I believe it is an update of the DE-650, which is on the supported list. Anyway, I did RTFM (the PCMCIA-HOWTO), and followed the instructions, attempting to get it to run the same module as the 650 (pcnet_cs). This didn't work. After pottering around for a while, I eventual found my way to the daemon.log, in which the PCMCIA stuff is logged. This is included below, and to my (novice) eyes, it doesn't look very promising! BTW, I'm using Debian 1.3.1 (kernel 2.0.29), the PCMCIA-CS that was on the same CD and pcmcia-modules-2.0.29-7_2.9.6-3.deb. Any help would be muchly apreciated! damon Mar 3 08:28:33 annapuna cardmgr[96]: initializing socket 0 Mar 3 08:28:33 annapuna cardmgr[96]: socket 0: D-Link DE-660 Ethernet Card Mar 3 08:28:33 annapuna cardmgr[96]: executing: 'insmod /lib/modules/2.0.29/pcmcia/8390.o' Mar 3 08:28:34 annapuna cardmgr[96]: + /lib/modules/2.0.29/pcmcia/8390.o: unresolved symbol dev_alloc_skb_Re1879ac7 Mar 3 08:28:34 annapuna cardmgr[96]: + /lib/modules/2.0.29/pcmcia/8390.o: unresolved symbol ether_setup_R49e2786a Mar 3 08:28:34 annapuna cardmgr[96]: + /lib/modules/2.0.29/pcmcia/8390.o: unresolved symbol eth_type_trans_R5d6ef009 Mar 3 08:28:34 annapuna cardmgr[96]: + /lib/modules/2.0.29/pcmcia/8390.o: unresolved symbol netif_rx_R4c16cac7 Mar 3 08:28:34 annapuna cardmgr[96]: + /lib/modules/2.0.29/pcmcia/8390.o: unresolved symbol dev_kfree_skb_R7154554e Mar 3 08:28:34 annapuna cardmgr[96]: + /lib/modules/2.0.29/pcmcia/8390.o: unresolved symbol dev_tint_R3dd5ae2a Mar 3 08:28:34 annapuna cardmgr[96]: insmod exited with status 1 Mar 3 08:28:34 annapuna cardmgr[96]: executing: 'insmod /lib/modules/2.0.29/pcmcia/pcnet_cs.o' Mar 3 08:28:34 annapuna cardmgr[96]: + /lib/modules/2.0.29/pcmcia/pcnet_cs.o: unresolved symbol ei_open Mar 3 08:28:34 annapuna cardmgr[96]: + /lib/modules/2.0.29/pcmcia/pcnet_cs.o: unresolved symbol ethdev_init Mar 3 08:28:34 annapuna cardmgr[96]: + /lib/modules/2.0.29/pcmcia/pcnet_cs.o: unresolved symbol ei_debug Mar 3 08:28:34 annapuna cardmgr[96]: + /lib/modules/2.0.29/pcmcia/pcnet_cs.o: unresolved symbol unregister_netdev_R8ca4afc9 Mar 3 08:28:34 annapuna cardmgr[96]: + /lib/modules/2.0.29/pcmcia/pcnet_cs.o: unresolved symbol ei_interrupt Mar 3 08:28:34 annapuna cardmgr[96]: + /lib/modules/2.0.29/pcmcia/pcnet_cs.o: unresolved symbol NS8390_init Mar 3 08:28:34 annapuna cardmgr[96]: + /lib/modules/2.0.29/pcmcia/pcnet_cs.o: unresolved symbol register_netdev_R1a0543c6 Mar 3 08:28:34 annapuna cardmgr[96]: insmod exited with status 1 Mar 3 08:28:34 annapuna cardmgr[96]: bind 'pcnet_cs' to socket 0 failed: No such device ======== Damon Muller ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Web Page: www.sub.net.au/~tr It's not a sense of humor.
