It was disabled before in 6.1mdk. That's what I was trying to say is that in 8.0, we were pulling in pcmcia-cs code and building the modules for PCMCIA, but now they use purely kernel drivers. One would have to build the pcmcia-cs modules to get the old ide_cs driver. Stew Benedict -- MandrakeSoft PPC FAQ: http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/demos/PPC/FAQ/
