Sorting out these > problems will take time. undoubtedly. one of the biggest problems i noticed was simply that of confusion. the pcmcia stuff is scattered in the config setup in several places. i wasn't sure if i needed to enable wireless lan support, and cardbus support, or if one or the other was sufficient, etc. tres confusing. > PCMCIA release numbers do not follow the odd=development, > even=stable convention used for kernel releases. ok. is there a convention to signify which is stable, or is there simply an accepted last-known-stable version? that said, 3.1.10 has been a champ for me. i esp appreciate the rolled-in airo drivers. curiosly, bob |
