    Xircom Ethernet LAN/Modem 10/100 PCMCIA card not recognized

    Hi:

    I have a Xircom Ethernet LAN/Modem 10/100 PCMCIA card installed on a Digital HiNote Ultra 2000 laptop, with Knoppix 3.3 installed on the hard disk, with kernel 2.4.22 and cardctl 3.2.5.

    When I do "/etc/init.d/pcmcia start" I get a message telling me that I have 2 sockets, but I should have 4: 2 for the Texas Instruments 1131 PCMCIA bridge and 2 for the Cirrus PD672x PCMCIA bridge -> http://inauspicious.org/hinote/#mode...tConfiguration

    My /etc/default/pcmcia file contains this data:

    PCMCIA='yes'
    PCIC="i82365"
    PCIC_OPTS=""
    CORE_OPTS=""
    CARDMGR_OPTS""

    When I write lsmod I get the yenta_socket module loaded, instead of i82365. I see yenta_socket is loaded at boot time although I boot with the nopcmcia option

    Can you tell me what is wrong with my configuration or where should I look? I've visited http://pcmcia-cs.sourceforge.net/ftp...CIA-HOWTO.html but I can't solve my problem.

    Thanks in advance.

    Problem solved

    I found the solution:
    Knoppix loaded the yenta_socket module at boot time because it was in /etc/module. I replaced yenta_socket with i82365 and now I can use the pcmcia card!
