During the PCMCIA installation, you are asked to enter any card-specific options as well as a controller type, e.g. i82365. After these options are entered and the card services are installed, you can then configure the Network. If the install process doesn't prompt you directly, you can choose it from the list of alternative options below the recommended options in the installation script. You don't specify the module to load, it is automatically detected by the card services. If it doesn't detect the correct card module, you can go into a console from the installation script and make some changes to the pcmcia config options to help the auto-detect process. > And then theres X...

You need a display manager. Also, the Mach64 xserver must be installed, apt-get install xserver-mach64 This will run you through the setup of the video card, monitor, mouse, and set this to be your default server. > Please help me, I can't even get into my machine now (well I can, but > only in text mode). > > -- > Best regards, > Søren Neigaard mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > > -- > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] > with a subject of "unsubscribe".
