memory_cs is *very* suspicious here. I get that loaded when my system isn't working properly (it's supposed to refer to a PCMCIA memory card, which I presume you aren't using). You didn't mention what model laptop you have. On my Toshiba laptop (490CDT) I found I had to switch the BIOS setting for the PCMCIA ports to 16 bit only (no cardbus), to stop that problem happening. But recompiling your kernel is the best thing to do first. Don't forget to recompile the pcmcia-modules as well when you do. > > and modprobe gives: > > #modprobe -k tulip > /lib/modules/2.0.38/net/tulip.o: init_module: > Device or resource busy > Probably related to the memory_cs problem. > Can you make any sence out of this?

You can restart pcmcia-cs with "/etc/init.d/pcmcia restart" (but you might get the "busy" message again if you try). -- PGP public key available at http://dparsons.webjump.com/drewskey.txt Fingerprint: A110 EAE1 D7D2 8076 5FE0 EC0A B6CE 7041 6412 4E4A
