Hello, Today I installed Linux kernel 2.4.5 on a friend's Dell Latitude, noticed that the "correct" driver for the card seems to be the 3c59x driver... 3c59x/3c90x/3c575_Cardbus series "Vortex/Boomerang/Cyclone" support CONFIG_VORTEX Now, this driver is meant for EISA, PCI, and PCMCIA network cards. So some of my problems might be related to the fact that it isn't dedicated pcmcia driver... ? If I load the module by hand, then run "pump", it works great. However, I would like this to happen automatically upon card insertion... so I tried the following: I modified the entry in /etc/pcmcia/config that read as follows: card "3Com 3CCFE575CT/3CXFE575CT Fast EtherLink XL" manfid 0x0101, 0x5257 bind "3c575_cb" (this manfid line matches the output of cardctl info), so that the bind line reads: bind "3c59x" Next, I added the following to the file, guided by the other entries I saw...: device "3c59x" class "network" module "3c59x" This did not do the trick though... the /etc/pcmcia/network script didn't even execute. Any ideas? Thanks, Hugo van der Merwe -- To send me private (non-world-readable) mail, GPG encrypt it. 1024D/60715698: 5F2E 8EC2 E0A4 5D25 0569 F281 4A6C D76D 6071 5698
