Did you restore /etc/udev and /etc/hotplug like I > suggested in my earlier mail? Yes, for udev. I repeat that hotplug is not installable because it conflicts with udev. If I install hotplug it removes udev and vice-versa. Further testing reveals that the debian kernel 2.6.18-3 gives the same results and the cisco card remains idle and no device is created even after modprobe airo. I managed to make the cisco card to work, as previously said, only with my 2.6.19.1 enabling the deprecated ioctl pcmcia interface, which gives the odd device name "eth2_rename" (after some minutes) which then I need to configure manually, which is unsatisfactory. If the ioctl pcmcia is not enabled, then no device is created.
