After installing pcmcia-modules-2.0.29x.deb and pcmcia-cs-2.9.6-3.deb on a
2.0.29 system as described in my last post, Card Services does start at
bootup, but complains about unresolved errors in my modules/pcmcia directory
and then cardmgr dies, saying that there's no pcmcia in /proc/devices ...
My guess is that I will have to find (from where, I don't know) the older
pcmcia-cs that works with this version of pcmcia-modules and install that.
