You can also have a local alias overriding in a /etc/modprobe.d/ file, for example: alias pcmcia:m02AAc0002f*fn*pfn*pa*pb*pc*pd* hostap_cs modprobe will use this alias only, since it doesn't look in module.alias if the alias is resolved before. This allows to override the driver for a specific card, without blacklisting a driver still usable with a whole number of cards.

Just from end user's standpoint: I am totally bored with this model. Every time new kernel comes I first delete all orinoco drivers, because I can't even blacklist them. I don't want to use them, I have a better driver --hostap. When I try to do the following in the /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-custom : # a) Do NOT load orinoco_pci/plx when we are using hostap driver # b) Do NOT load eepro100, 8139cp blacklist orinoco_pci blacklist orinoco_plx blacklist eepro100 blacklist 8139cp The eepro100 and 8139cp get blacklisted just fine but not the orinoco_pci, it always want to load itself. Because of this and the lack of WPA support in orinoco drivers the prism2 id:s should be removed from the orinoco drivers. To achieve security you have to run vpn over wireless when you use orinoco drivers. How the orinoco driver can be as _good_ as the hostap driver for the prism2 cards? I think hostap is a lot better. -- Best Regards, Jar - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line unsubscribe netdev in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
[PATCH 1/5] new pcmcia IDs for hostap - ASUS WL-110
This time I checked more carefully my changeset and split it into smaller parts. Few of my patches was tested by OpenZaurus users, some are waiting for testing. We switched to pcmciautils when moved to 2.6.16 and many users complain that their WiFi CompactFlash cards are driven by orinoco instead of hostap. BTW - how to force using of hostap_cs when both hostap_cs and orinoco_cs has card in device table? All patches require 24_hostap_cs_id.diff from Pavel Roskin.
