Laptop PCMCIA Troubles
I'm unable to get pcmcia working on a laptop.
Here's what I've got so far:
I've installed the pcmcia modules for my system (Woody
2.2.20).
I've installed pcmcia-cs package.
I've made an effort at setting up my
/etc/pcmcia/config.opts file according to the pcmcia
HOWTO.
Symptoms:
There are no eth0, eth1, etc devices in /dev, but
there is a /lib/modules/2.2.20/net directory full of
drivers.
When I insert a 3com lan card, the cardmgr i ndicates
it sees it: cs: cb_alloc (bus 35): Vendor 0x10b7,
Device 0x5157.
But -- no lan driver is loaded.
The Lan card lights come on. Cardinfo seems to see
the card and says it's ready. But I can't configure
if there are no eth devices.
Next problem. Cardmgr doesn't seem to see at all a
flash card (brand SanDisk). Again, no drivers a
loaded by cardmgr. Cardinfo doesn't seem to see the
card at all.
What's missing?
Here's what I've added to /etc/pcmcia/config.opts:
case "$ADDRESS" in
*,*,*,*)
DO_FSTAB="n" ; DO_FSCK="y" ; DO_MOUNT="y"
FSTYPE="msdos"
OPTS=""
MOUNTPT="/aux"
;;
esac
# LAN card
case "$ADDRESS" in
*,*,*,*)
IF_PORT="10base2"
BOOTP="n"
IPADDR="192.168.110.50"
NETMASK="255.255.255.0"
NETWORK="192.168.110.0"
BROADCAST="192.168.110.255"
GATEWAY="192.168.110.50"
DOMAIN="smith.com"
DNS_1="dns1.smith.com"
;;
esac
