Hi everybody,
I'm having some trouble with the configuration of my pcmcia network card
under Debian. When I load the appropriate driver manually (modprobe
xircom_cb) and issue a dhcp request (dhclient eth0) everything works
fine. I would like the cardmgr to load the xircom_cb module
automatically when the card is put in the pcmcia slot on my laptop
(ThinkPad T21), but that doesn't seem to work.
When I put the pcmcia card (IBM EtherJet) into a pcmcia card and
xircom_cb is not yet loaded, I get a message like this one:
cs: cb_alloc(bus 2): vendor 0x115d device 0x0003
PCI: Enabling device 02:00.0 (0000 -> 0003)
With the xircom_cb module already loaded, it says the same plus:
PCI: Setting latency timer of device 02:00.0 to 64
eth0: Xircom cardbus revision 3 at irq 11
How can I tell cardmgr to automatically load the xircom_cb module and
issue a dhcp request? I thought the config below should do the trick...
I tried with both the manfid and the version info of the IBM etherjet card.
Hope somebody can help me out...
Cheers,
Chris.
