Please don't forget the simple to fix bug I reported yesterday. Essentially someone needs to include a more recent config file in the pcmcia-cs package. The file being distributed is over two years old. Many pcm cards that would otherwise work with the current level pcmcia-cs software are not usable without manual config file editing. What is odd is that the mdk.rpm is being made up with these old config files, when the source tarball has the newer ones.
