Hey all, I can't seem to get my pcmcia network cards working after an upgrade to the 2.4.18-586tsc kernel (from Debian kernel-image package).
Under the 2.2.x-bf kernel, I had at least one card working fine with the pcnet_cs module. Other relevant-looking modules that were loaded at the time are 8390 and ds (used by pcnet_cs), i82365, and pcmcia_core (used by pcnet_cs, ds and i82365). Now, when I try to modprobe pcnet_cs it complains about "ds: no socket drivers loaded!" and insmod fails. If I understand things rightly, i82365 is a socket driver... yes? So I try modprobe i82365 and it complains thus: Intel PCIC Probe: not found /lib/modules/2.4.18-586tsc/kernel/drivers/pcmcia/i82365.o: init_module: No such device. and after a couple more lines, insmod fails. Well, I went a-Googling, and found this thread: http://lists.debian.org/debian-laptop/2003/debian-laptop-200302/msg00093.html so I tried to modprobe yenta_socket, which responded with a similar "init_module: no such device" and insmod fails. Now, since it all *worked* on the 2.2.x kernel with the i82365 module, I'm assuming that's the right one for my hardware... And my 2.4.x modules tree does indeed *have* that module, it just won't load. So what do I try next? This is all under woody on an old Hitachi laptop, Pentium 133... It ain't gonna be much use as a firewall until I get the network cards working! :P -- ,-------------------------------------------------------------------------. > -ScruLoose- | Check out the coolest radio station ever: < > Please do not | www.radioparadise.com < > reply off-list. | < `-------------------------------------------------------------------------'
