Notebook:TwinHead Pentium-166 Memory: 32 MB Disk: IDE The probe shows PCI bridge probe: not found. Intel PCIC probe: i82365sl DF found, 2 sockets Linux version: Redhat 5.0, Kernerl 2.0.36 No other special equipment attached to the notebook. Because I have a project about mobile IP, I have to installed the old release of Linux on this machine and make it work with the PCMCIA ethernet card, D-Link DE-660. I have tried several versions of the pcmcia drivers d/l from this site. The first one I tried is 3.1.12 but I failed while it compiled the drivers. Thus, I tried some others like 3.0.12, 3.1.11, and 3.1.13. All of them came up with no problems when I compiled. However, the system always got halted while I booted the machine after the phrase, "modules" showed up. Therefore, I tried to debug by myself and traced the /etc/rc.d/init.d/pcmcia script. I followed it step by step. I found that the system never upload pcmcia_core.o successfully, but it didn't get halted. As it tried to insmod i82365.o, the system halted immediately. When I tried "insmod -pvm i82365.o", it would show the following messages, i82365.o: unresolved symbol pci_set_power_state i82365.o: unresolved symbol pci_find_class i82365.o: unresolved symbol pci_enable_device i82365.o: unresolved symbol request_mem_region i82365.o: unresolved symbol release_mem_region i82365.o: unresolved symbol unregister_ss_entry i82365.o: unresolved symbol pci_find_slot i82365.o: unresolved symbol pci_irq_mask i82365.o: unresolved symbol register_ss_entry i82365.o: unresolved symbol CardServices If "insmod i82365.o", the system will halt immediately. However, when I switch to single user mode, I can successfully upload pcmcia_core.o which gives me 8 pages and 0 used. It is of no problem to upload both i82365.o and ds.o under single user mode, but what I can see with "lsmod" is pcmcia_core.o. Thus, I don't think it is successfully installed. I have tried to find out the answer by myself on this forum before I post this. I didn't set any CFLAGS on my system and it is a pure system without any other stuff but a mobile ip daemon developed by Stanford Univ. May you guys be kind to do me a favor to solve the problem? I can provide as much as information about my system if the above are not enough yet. Thank you in advance. Chih |
