Hi! After I finally broke off the adaptor-cable of my old network-card, I now have a new noname 8139-based one. Problem is, that the cardmgr can find and activate the card, but does not load the required modules or start the interface. The card works just fine, if I modprobe the 8139too-module and configure the interface by hand, but I'd rather have this happen automatically, like it worked with my old card. The following gets logged to /var/log/messages when I do /etc/init.d/pcmcia start:

I tried adding the following lines to /etc/pcmcia/config: device "8139too" class "network" module "net/8139too" card "NoName 10/100" manfid 0x10ec, 0x8139 bind "8139too" but obviously those don't do the trick. How do I get the cardmgr to automatically load the 8139too-module and set up eth0 (this is debian/testing, kernel 2.4.20)? Thanks for any help! Thomas
