Hi there,

I run sid on my aged Panasonic Toughbook which has Xircom PCMCIA network

Somehow I can not get the network card boot up properly so the interface

When I login as root and do:

# /etc/init.d/networking stop; /etc/init.d/networking start

everything is available as it should be.

My /etc/network/interfaces looks like this:

sure. edit /etc/pcmcia/network.opts to configure pcmcia-cards.

I can not get linux to detect my PCMCIA ethernet card.

I have a Fujitsu Lifebook 420D laptop and the PCMCIA controller is a
Cirrus CL-PD6729. The PCMCIA card is a 3Com Megahertz 3CXFE575CT, it is a
cardbus card and not an ISA card. Is this specific card and this specific
controller conflicting?
Sorry, but the CL-PD6729 is not a CardBus controller. You can only use
16bit cards. The 3CXFE575CT is 32bits wide.

Hello Jochen,

is it possible to use a fixed dsdt with kernel 2.6.3?
On acpi.sf.net you can only find any hint howto proceed to do
this with kernel 2.4.x. I fixed the dsdt of my Toshiba

i could not test the 2.6.3 with it because i sold my notebook before

I did it! Simply proceed as if you are working with a newer kernel v2.4.

Hey Nicolas,

thx for responding that quickly. ACPI is not set, because the Bios ist
to old. If I set ACPI it says "Bios older than 2000, ACPI disabled" or
something like this. Therefor I didn't set up ACPI the last times I
builded my kernels.
The Problem with the Dell extension is that they are for Inspiron 8x but
I set them.
May I post a copy of my kernel config?
The dmesg output with enabled acpi ( kernel & BIOS if avail. ) would
be more helpful.

My question - in english - was:

If i send an eMail with a falsified senders adress ( who has vacation
notices enabled ) to a recipient who has vacation notices enabled too,
would that lead to an endless loop between this 2 Mailservers?
That could be used to DoS 2 Mailserver with only 5 or 6 eMail and
i want to know if i have to do something to avoid that this could
be used to DoS MY Mailserver...
I know that this is the wrong list for those questions, it was

Mailserver is an armada 1700... :)

I have the answer. In sieve there is the parameter days:
(vacation :days) which defaults to 7 if missing.
==> no endless loop.
