Xircon troubles when switching to kernel 2.4.0-test9



-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

Having a problem with a Dell Latitude CPt.  It has Debian Woody on it with
a Xircom CBEM56G-100 10/100 Ethernet + 56K Modem.

Was working fine with a 2.2.17 kernel.  In fact, it survived the DefCon
"capture the flag" contest
(http://defcon.gamelet.com/html/defcon8-035.html) running Apache and a
Jserv app.  

At my new job, I am using it as a desktop and wanted to hook up a keyboard
and mouse.  Since it has only one PS/2 port, plugged the keyboard into
that and the mouse into the USB port.  I installed a 2.4.0-test9 kernel
for the USB stuff.  

The problem is that the module seems to have changed from tulip_cb to
xircom_tulip_cb.   I reinstalled the pcmcia package, so the
/etc/pcmcia/config shows xircom_tulip_cb as the module it needs.  when you
cat /var/lib/pcmcia/stab it shows 
0	network	xircom_tulip_cb	0	tulip_cb

the cardmgr executes 'modprobe cb_enabler' and 'modprobe xircom_tulip_cb'
fine. but then when it executes './network start tulip_cb' it says it cant
locate module 'tulip_cb' and 'tulip_cb error fetching interface
information'.  I have tried renaming xircom_tulip_cb, but it also gets an
error.  ./MAKEDEV: don't know how to make device "tulip_cb".

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
