When I installed PCMCIA on my laptop the first time I was using kernel 2.2.5 and then everything but sound was working excelent, BUT when I bought SuSE 6.3 with kernel 2.2.13 I got everything except PCMCIA to work. The system freezes or even reboots when it is Starting PCMCIA services : modules_ _ is a blinking cursor. Even with card inserted and without It is a TI 1225 slot. i82365 compatible. Please help me........ I have tried a lots of things, turning of scanning and other resource related stuff.

It is a problem with SuSE 6.3 Re: Sad: Problems with PCMCIA(TI 1225) on a Compaq Armada 1500C and SuSE 6.3 Kernel 2.2.13 (Knut-Perry G. Brumoen) Date: 2000, Feb 25 From: David Hinds <dhinds@pcmcia.sourceforge.org>

You need to turn off PnP support in the pcmcia_core module. SuSE should not have turned it on by default. See: http://sdb.suse.de/sdb/en/html/mneden_6.3_pcmcia-start.html for instructions. -- Dave

It wasn't that easy and I have tried something like that before. I have even tried to install the 2.2.5 kernel when running SuSE 6.3 and it works fine, but the soundcard is creating some errors that makes everything up side down!!! But running on 2.2.13 the PCMCIA doesn't work. Not even with 2.2.14. Only with 2.2.5!

The kernel version is not relevant. There are no differences between a 2.2.5 and 2.2.13 kernel that should affect PCMCIA. If it isn't the SuSE issue, and you say you've already tried "lots of things" which I guess include all the suggestions in the PCMCIA-HOWTO chapter on installation problems, then my next suggestion would be to upgrade your PCMCIA drivers. -- Dave

Already upgraded Re: Re: Sad: Nope... It wasn't that easy. (David Hinds) Date: 2000, Feb 25 From: Knut-Perry G. Brumoen Kavkazz

Yes HOWTO documentation is already well read. Their are already upgraded. Even tried older versions but with no luck. Sorry, but my Compaq ain't easy to live with!! But thanks anyway..
