Hej, (this is more a problem description than a question and might be relevant mostly for pmud and pcmcia maintainers)
I'm running debian stable using a 2.2.19 kernel using the pcmcia-cs 3.1.22-0.2potato (should be most recent) on a powerbook 2400c, pmud 0.7-3, and a PCMCIA ne2000 clone (abocom fe1000) (10/100 mbit) when disconnecting the power coord, the pb notices, goes to powersave mode (pmud is fine, there), and the ethernet is disabled (guess that is fine, according to /etc/power/pwrctl). so far, no problem. however, when just reconnecting the power cord, the system hangs dead. (both X and console, w/o messages, just plain deadlock). doing 1 /etc/init.d/pcmcia stop 2 reconnect power 3 /etc/init.d/pcmcia start works fine, then. Possible solutions: a) modify /etc/power/pwrctl to shutdown and re-init pcmcia services when going in/from low-energy mode (but only being a workaround) b) upgrade to most recent kernel and pcmcia services (well... I actually have a (mostly) working system) I don't know if this has happened also to other people having a pb2400 or pb3400 - if yes, it might be a good idea(tm) to add the pcmcia stop/start commands to pwrctl. bye Philipp Kaeser / [EMAIL PROTECTED]
