Hi, I'm Kazuhiko Uebayashi.

I'm in trouble now in using Cardbus NIC(Network Interface Card).

On kernel 2.2.19 with pcmcia-modules(make-kpkg from pcmcia-source),
I can use this Cardbus NIC.

But after I change kernel to 2.4.12,it dosen't work well.

/var/log/syslog says the following, 
------------------------
Oct 27 03:55:01 darkstar kernel: cs: cb_free(bus 21)
Oct 27 03:55:01 darkstar cardmgr[201]: shutting down socket 1

Oct 27 03:55:04 darkstar cardmgr[201]: get dev info on socket 1 failed: Resource 
temporarily unavailable
--------------------------.

I can't understand well what the log means.

Is it possible to use Carbus NIC (ADMtek 985 Chip) 
on kernel 2.4.12 without pcmcia-modules?

Could you tell me how to use this CardBus NIC without  pcmcia-modules?

In case  using pcmcia-modules, 
Do I had better to remove pcmcia-net-driver support from kernel?
