Like everything else I seem to do ... error messages! :-( "Shutting down PCMCIA services:. Starting PCMCIA services:Warning: modutils is reading from /etc/modules.conf and ignoring /etc/conf.modules.

That is part of my frustration, I trusted those instructions and they don't warn about a trashed pcmcia setup. Thanks!
