Anyway after along night (i am now sick and coghing) i decided to re-install rehhat right and see what it was doing. so any way after re-installing i copied /etc to my windows partition so i would have access to it when i was running debian
anyway the proble was that when cardmgr would proble it would have when it PROBE 0x1000-0x17ff so i copied the redhad config.opts to debiand and started it and it stared beutifully. I've included the config.opts file beloew I think the imporant part is the #High port numbers do not always work.... anyway so i can telnet ineto my wall now, but i cant go outside sine i havent fingured out how to get the laptop to resove names like mods.com but that is a proble i will read up on. and again thanks for all your help # # Local PCMCIA Configuration File # #---------------------------------------------------------------------- # System resources available for PCMCIA devices include port 0x100-0x4ff, port 0x800-0x8ff, port 0xc00-0xcff include memory 0xc0000-0xfffff include memory 0xa0000000-0xa0ffffff, memory 0x60000000-0x60ffffff # High port numbers do not always work... # include port 0x1000-0x17ff # Extra port range for IBM Token Ring include port 0xa00-0xaff # Resources we should not use, even if they appear to be available # First built-in serial port exclude irq 4 # Second built-in serial port #exclude irq 3 # First built-in parallel port exclude irq 7 # PS/2 Mouse controller port, comment this out if you don't have a PS/2 # based mouse exclude irq 12 #---------------------------------------------------------------------- # Examples of options for loadable modules # To fix sluggish network with IBM ethernet adapter... #module "pcnet_cs" opts "mem_speed=600" # Options for IBM Token Ring adapters #module "ibmtr_cs" opts "mmiobase=0xd0000 srambase=0xd4000" # Options for Raylink/WebGear driver: uncomment only one line... # Generic ad-hoc network module "ray_cs" opts "essid=ADHOC_ESSID hop_dwell=128 beacon_period=256 translate=1" # Infrastructure network for older cards #module "ray_cs" opts "net_type=1 essid=ESSID1" # Infrastructure network for WebGear #module "ray_cs" opts "net_type=1 essid=ESSID1 translate=1 hop_dwell=128 beacon_period=256" # Options for WaveLAN/IEEE driver (AccessPoint mode)... #module "wvlan_cs" opts "station_name=MY_PC" # Options for WaveLAN/IEEE driver (ad-hoc mode)... #module "wvlan_cs" opts "port_type=3 channel=1 station_name=MY_PC" # Options for Xircom Netwave driver... #module "netwave_cs" opts "domain=0x100 scramble_key=0x0" On Tue, 12 Dec 2000, Brian Mays wrote: > Date: Tue, 12 Dec 2000 22:11:32 -0500 > From: Brian Mays <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: dude <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: Re: PCMCIA Help > > > i've decided to re-load RH7 on it, > > and look at its configuration files for PCMCIA > > > > you would happen to know where to look would you? > > Look in /etc/sysconfig/pcmcia and the /etc/pcmcia directory. > > - Brian >
