The PCMCIA drivers in the latest 2.3.* kernels seem to not work for many people, including me. A lot of this code is new and went in over my objections. -- Dave

when do you think it will be fixed? Re: Recent 2.3.* kernels have lots of problems (David Hinds) Date: 2000, Feb 28 From: Stef Epardaud <stef@exes-de-vie>

thanx for your fast answer, i can now relax and stop banging my head on the wall trying to fix this :) one thing i don't understand is how things that worked perfectly were broken, and why. but then it must be because things were maybe not working for all of us, right? anyways, do you have any idea when it will be fixed ? too bad my experience with drivers is non existent, i would have gladly helped :(

Question: When did the Kernels change? Can I revert? Re: Recent 2.3.* kernels have lots of problems (David Hinds) Date: 2000, Mar 02 From: Joseph Fannin II trevorcor

Just curious if anyone could tell me when the 2.3 kernels changed; I would like to use the latest kernel that isn't broken. I can't fix this by using Dave Hinds' package, can I? I've tried something like this before, and apparently I have to use the in-kernel drivers rather than the pcmcia-cs package. pcmcia_core loads fine, but the i82365 bridge module claims that 'device or resource is busy.' The fact that I remember what the bridge is called means I've spent too much time trying to fix this. Well, at least it isn't pgcs that's screwing things up. Thanks in advance for any help.
