Help. pcmica doesn't work any longer.
Please help.
I just updated my frozen on my laptop.
After updating, I am not able to use pcmcia any longer. The pcmcia-core
module is not being loaded automatically on startup any longer. When I
try to load it using modconf, I get the following messages:

Installing module pcmcia_core. If the device isn't there, or isn't
configured correctly, this could cause your system to pause for up to a
minute.

Please press ENTER when you are ready to continue.
I was running kernel 2.2.13, so I tried to update to 2.2.15 by
downloading the necessary stuff onto Windows and then installing in
Debian using dpkg -i, but with the same result.
