Doesn't sound like the prob I had, plus I had it with all of the 2.4.x kernels I've used. I'll give you the solution I found anyway :). 2.4.x needs the yenta_socket module. Modprobe it and stuff starts working. A couple of weeks ago someone on debian-user mentioned some actual documentation saying to move change i82365 to yenta_socket in /etc/pcmcia.conf. That's been working great for me. ciao, der.hans -- # [EMAIL PROTECTED] home.pages.de/~lufthans/ www.DevelopOnline.com # ... make it clear I support "Free Software" and not "Open Source", # and don't imply I agree that there is such a thing as a # "Linux operating system". - rms
