Hi all, I am trying to install a PCMCIA network card on my laptop (specs at bottom)i have un compressed my kernel (2.3.24) and pcmcia-cs-3.0.14.tar.gz into /usr/src. when i make config in the pcmcia dir. everthing goes fine, but when i do make all a whole lot of errors come up, which finishs with: ../include/pcmcia/k_compat.h:271: parse error before 'unsigned' ../include/pcmcia/k_compat.h:273: parse error before '&' ../include/pcmcia/k_compat.h:273: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ../include/pcmcia/k_compat.h:273: parse error before 'unsigned' make[1]: *** [i82365.o] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory '/usr/src/pcmcia-cs-3.0.14/modules' make: *** [all] Error 2 i decided to try a new version, and when i try the 3.1.8 PCMCIA package i get the error: make[1]: *** No rule to make target '/usr/src/linux/drivers/net/ibmtr.c', needed by ibmtr.o' Stop. make[1]: Leaving directory '/usr/src/pcmcia-cs-3.1.8/clients' make: *** [all] Error 2 when i upgrade the kernel to 2.3.40 i get this error: i82365.c: In function 'set_bridge_opts': i82365.c:1249: incompatible types in assignment i82365.c:1249: structure has no member named 'next' i82365.c:1248: warning: 'p' might be used uninitialized in this function i82365.c: In function 'add_cb_bridge': i82365.c:1768: incompatible types in assignment i82365.c:1768: structure has no member named 'next' i82365.c:1781: structure has no member named 'next' i82365.c:1783: incompatible types in assignment i82365.c:1767: warning: 'child' might be used unitnitialized in this function i82365.c:17672: warning: 's' might be used uninitialized in this function i82365.c:17672: warning: 's' might be used uninitialized in this function i82365.c:17672: warning: 's' might be used uninitialized in this function i82365.c:17672: warning: 's' might be used uninitialized in this function make[1]: *** [i82365.o] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory '/usr/src/pcmcia-cs-3.1.8/modules' make : *** [all] Error 2 Any ideas? I am I using buggy/unstable versions of the kernel/pcmcia package? if so which versions of both pcmcia and kernel do you advise that are stable and compatible?
