Hi Guys,
I've got one of the dreaded Compaq Presario 900 Linux
hating laptops. Unfortunatly the stock kernel locks up
USB even 2.4.20-18 in RH9. Therfore you have to
compile 2.4.21 with some patches to stand any chance.
I have done this and thought all was OK. BUT when i
reboot PCMCIA refuses to restart, if i run
/sbin/modprobe pcmicia_core, yenta_socket and ds by
hand it works, but on restart modprobe complains that
it cannot find the modules. I have attached my kernel
boot and syslogs FYI. My hunch is that it is something
to do with the PCMCIA script, it appears to use
/lib/modules/'uname - r' to identify which modules to
load and then does some stripping of the uname output.
I am wondering if my kernel being 2.4.21 is to short a
name!!?? Please help.
Regards, David
