This only laptop I'm running 2.4.12 on, I'm not using pcmcia
kernel support. I get the pcmcia3.1.29 source and compile it
myself. This is working great for me.
Have you confirmed that your laptop uses the i82365 and not TCIC?
I don't know how to check this.
You know, it just occurred to me....you're compiling cardbus and
i82365 into the kernel, and on another post you showed the syslog
which looks like the system is trying to load modules. Perhaps
you should recompile the kernel and make modules:
CONFIG_CARDBUS=m
CONFIG_I82365=m
That way, the system will actually have a module to load.
