RE: Upgrading slink kernel -> 2.2.12 -no pcmcia -Reply
Au contraire:
I'm running Potato on my Dell Inspiron 7000, from scratch (i.e., I
didn't slink & upgrade); it works a treat.

| you need pcmcia-source. Install the package, cd /usr/src and untar the

| cd /usr/src/linux (or your kernel dir)
| make-kpkg modules_image (make-kpkg is in kernel-package)
| cd ..
| cd modules/pcmcia-<version>
| debian/rules binary
| cd ..
| dpkg --install pcmcia-cs-<version>.deb ../pcmcia-modules-<version>.deb
