I spent some hours last night getting pcmcia working with redhat 6.1 kernel-2.2.12 on a Toshiba Tecra 8100. Note first that SuSE 6.3 runs out of the box on this machine: Feb 2 22:18:49 elf8 kernel: Linux PCMCIA Card Services 3.1.3 Feb 2 22:18:49 elf8 kernel: kernel build: 2.2.13 #1 Mon Nov 8 18:28:35 GMT 1999 Feb 2 22:18:49 elf8 kernel: options: [pci] [cardbus] [pnp] But the pcmcia shipping with RedHat 6.1 didn't work. I first tried pcmcia-cs-3.1.11, in all configurations tried, with all sorts of imaginative values for cb_mem_base, the result was essentially: Feb 22 03:06:33 localhost pcmcia: Starting PCMCIA services: Feb 22 03:06:33 localhost pcmcia: modules Feb 22 03:06:34 localhost kernel: Linux PCMCIA Card Services 3.1.11 Feb 22 03:06:34 localhost kernel: kernel build: 2.2.12-20 #1 Mon Sep 27 10:40:35 EDT 1999 Feb 22 03:06:34 localhost kernel: options: [pci] [cardbus] [apm] [pnp] Feb 22 03:06:34 localhost kernel: PCI routing table version 1.0 at 0xf0130 Feb 22 03:06:34 localhost kernel: 00:0b.0 -> irq 11 Feb 22 03:06:34 localhost kernel: 00:0b.1 -> irq 11 Feb 22 03:06:34 localhost kernel: PnP: PNP BIOS installation structure at 0xc00f46c0 Feb 22 03:06:34 localhost kernel: PnP: PNP BIOS version 1.0, entry at f0000:927f, dseg at 0 Feb 22 03:06:34 localhost kernel: Intel PCIC probe: Feb 22 03:06:34 localhost kernel: Bridge register mapping failed: check cb_mem_base setting Feb 22 03:06:34 localhost kernel: not found.

I needed a "tired face" for this message, I got four hours of sleep last night. -- rec -- |
