Hello. I just got my first laptop (an old one) and installed Debian 3.0 on it. The default kernel didn't support my soundcard, so I decided to upgrade. First I tried 2.4.13 because I already had it downloaded on my desktop, and then I tried 2.4.19. I compiled both as debs. Now I'm missing more than sound; I'm missing PCMCIA. I compiled support for it into the kernel. The pcmcia_core and i82092 modules load just as they should, but ds says "no socket drivers found". I have upgraded modutils and pcmcia-cs to the newest versions in sid. I've been working on this for about a week and have asked various people for help, but I have made little progress. I've managed to wipe out the old kernel, so now I have no way of getting the machine on the net. The machine is a Compaq Presario 1070. I would guess that I left something out of the kernel I compiled, but I've searched several times and haven't found anything that sounds relavent. I'll be quite happy if someone can help me get my laptop throwing packets out onto the net again.
