[DEBIAN] AARGH PCMCIA network adaptor still not recognised
Howdy,
I'm still having problems accessing my network from my portable.
My 3Com Etherlink II 3C589D (or C) adaptor is recognised as a ...
Anonymous Memory Card !!! I thought it was a problem with the PCMCIA
drivers so I copied the pcmcia sources from a working portable (same
network adaptor) and recompiled everything but it still doesn't work!
I even tried installing Debian from a crapy InfoMagic CD I have (doesn't
contain pcmcia drivers) and then installing the pcmcia sources from the
the working notebook. This worked... until I upgraded Debian over the
running network (making sure not to upgrade pcmcia support) When I rebooted
pcmcia went to hell again!!
Can somebody PLEEEEEEEASE give me a suteable solution for this! Having
the user reboot a couple of times at startup is absolutely out of the
question. I'm trying to convince my boss that Debian Linux is a good
UNIX platform but I'm afraid this proves absolutely the oposite!
Nico.
