Re: pcmcia problem

I have the same problem, I'm getting this same message.
I have a W-Linx Linx Pro 10/100 Card. It's listed as supported in the pcmcia-cs-3.1.25 list of supported cards, but under 10 MBit/s cards, not under 10/100. First I had the potato pcmcia-cs package installed (3.1.22). I got a high and a low beep when I inserted the card. Then I saw that pcmcia modules package and installed it too (the version that matches my kernel, 2.2.18). I think the beeps changed to high and middle then, but I'm not sure. When I saw that my card is not in the list of supported cards in the 3.1.22 version I unstalled the pcmcia-cs and pcmcia-modules debian packages and compiled pcmcia-cs-3.1.25. I don't know if I need a modules packages for this too, I haven't found one. But the pcnet_cs module, which is supposed to be the one for my card, is loaded. Here is the output of lsmod:

Now I get a high and a low beep again when I insert the card.

If anayone can help, please do. This is a rare chance to help 2 people with one effort :)
