Question: Using PCMCIA with Kernel v2.3.99-pre6 

Forum: Installing Linux using or onto a PCMCIA device
Date: 2000, May 03
From: David Stephenson stugs

I am installing the PCMCIA modules on my Toshiba Portege 3020CT. After my inital install of Debian, it found my network and modem cards. Since it was supported, I decided to upgrade to a 2.3.x kernel. I installed the kernel and then installed the latest PCMCIA package. When I boot the machine I get the following:

<snip>
Linux PCMCIA Card Services 3.1.11
  kernel build: 2.3.99-pre6 #8 Wed May 3 14:50:31 EST 2000
  options:  [pci] [cardbus]
Intel PCIC Probe: not found
ds: no socket drivers loaded!
<snip>

Once I get to the login promt and check the modules, I see that only the pcmcia_core module is loaded. I am then unable to load any of the other modules by hand.

If I reboot back into a 2.2.x kernel, the modules all load fine.

Any ideas?
