Tried with Knoppix 3.2 which has a 2.4.20 kernel... by itself it loaded the prism2_cs driver... removed it and tried the orinoco_cs, ... modules you mentioned, but I do not get an interface... which confirms your experience... I've tried to run Debian unstable with the 2.4.18-686 kernel, but still no eth1 interface... I do have a eth0, but that one is for the ethernet card, AFAIK... > > here is some versioning: > > > > wireless-tools 25-3 > > kernel-image-... 2.4.20-7 > > kernel-pcmcia-... 2.4.20-7 > > my wireless-tools are 26-1 and my kernel is custom 2.4.18 > funny I have a 2.4.20 and 2.4.21 custom kernels but my card doesn't get an > eth0 is still I see > cs: memory probe 0x0c0000-0x0fffff: excluding 0xc0000-0xcffff > 0xf0000-0xfffff orinoco_cs: RequestIRQ: Resource in use > no matter what I do.

Do you know some sources of information, i.e. programs that can figure out statuses of things? Egon Egon
