Question: installing a Quatech spp-100 pcmcia card with 3.1.14 on kernel 2.3.99pre8

I have a Quatech spp-100 parallel port card that I would like to use with ppdev user-drivers, but cannot get the pcmcia card services to work correctly. I am using pcmcia-cs-3.1.14 and kernel 2.3.99-pre8 with parport, parport_pc,ppdev made as modules (they are shown in /lib/modules/2.3.99-pre8/misc as parport.o parport_pc.o, ppdev.o). When I attempt to start pcmcia services I receive a high beep followed by a low beep. The cardctl ident shows the correct card "Quatech Spp-100 enhanced parallel port card." I did the make config,make all, and make install in the /usr/src/pcmcia-cs-3.1.14. But I did not see the parport_cs.o in /lib/modules/2.3.99-pre8/pcmcia. Is there something else that I have missed to install this pcmcia card? Any help would be very much appreciated. If anyone has or is using the Quatech spp-100 card in the 2.3 kernel, I would like any information about the installation and/or configuration of the card. Thanks

That combo won't work, for now Re: Question: installing a Quatech spp-100 pcmcia card with 3.1.14 on kernel 2.3.99pre8 Date: 2000, Jul 11 From: David Hinds <dhinds@pcmcia.sourceforge.org>

The parport_cs driver has not been adapted to work with 2.3 kernels; that is documented in the BUGS file. I haven't had time to work on it, and since I never use the Quatech card, it has slipped pretty low on my list of things to do. -- Dave
