Hey Again,
Im not sure, but I think Linux is having issues with my PCMCIA cardbus.
Cardmgr works, and it 'watches 1 socket' quite nicely, (at bootup).
Here is the lspci:
*Code:*
0000:00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corp. 82440MX Host Bridge (rev 01)
0000:00:00.1 Multimedia Audio Controller: Intel Corp. 82440MX AC'97
Audio Controller
0000:00:02.0 VGA Compatible Controller: Silicon Motion, Inc. SM710
LynxEM (rev a3)
0000:00:03.0 Cardbus Bridge: Ricoh Co Ltd RL5c475 (rev 80)
0000:00:07.0 ISA Bridge: Intel Corp. 82440MX ISA Bridge (rev 01)
0000:00:07.1 IDE interface: Intel Corp 82440MX EIDE Controller
0000:00:07.2 USB Controller: Intel Corp. 82440MX USB Universal Host
Controller
0000:00:07.3 Bridge: Intel Corp. 82440MX Power Management Controller
0000:00:09.0 Communication Controller: 3Com Corporation MINI PCI type 3B
Data Fax Modem
I have installed ndiswrapper and the appropriate drivers for my Wireless
LAN PCMCIA card,
(DLink Airplus DWL-650+) and when I type ndiswrappre -l, (lists the
drivers available)
It says (in a nutshell) the driver is working. It makes no mention as
its supposed to about
the card being present. Im thinking maybe I did not compile my kernel
with the correct options
for my PCMCIA slot(?), and if someone who has this configuration working
could offer some
hints as to how to configure the kernel properly, Id be very grateful.
It is also worth noting, that another card (3Com LAN card), which I know
works on a different laptop, (under the Gentoo install bootdisk) is not
detected on this notebook computer.
Thanks!!!
Ian
