But I built my own pcmcia-modules package and kernel-image package from the 2.4.17 kernel-source and 3.1.36 pcmcia-source. You mean that these are still building bad links? I have tried using the --force-overwrite option when installating the pcmcia-modules package and it still does not work. I am able to get past the problem with the pcmcia-core problem. But the specific drivers I am using (orinoco, orinoco_cs) are still failing to modprobe successfully. Now what I am seeing is a versioning problem between these drivers in the two pacages. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
