Most likely cause of this is that you configured device driver support before PCMCIA support. From my old notes: LAPTOP ALERT!! This is one of those places. The default menu choice is Configure Device Driver Modules and the alternate menu choice is Configure PCMCIA Support. If you need PCMCIA support, DO THIS FIRST! When this happened to me (the reason for the note) I just bit the bullet (since it was a fresh install) and did it over. Luck, Pann -- What's All the Buzz About Linux? L I N U X .~.
