Yes. I'm actually trying to get a Xircom ethernet/modem PCMCIA card
to configure properly on a digital laptop. I have been in contact with
another guy with exactly the same laptop who has got it working using
RedHat. We can't find anything wrong with what I am doing. The only
possibility is that he is using version 2.0.31 of kernel and version 3.0.1
of card services. Where as I have been using kernel 2.0.2[34] and version
3.0.3[4] of card services.
Given that I have exhausted other avenues, it seemed to me that it would
be good to install kernel 2.0.31 to see if the problem lies with later
kernels.
But now I can't even get 2.0.31 to compile. Aaaaahhh!
The problem seems to occur in compiling scc.c which seems to be some kind
of ham radio driver --- in doing a make menuconfig, I looked to see if I
could deselect this driver but it didn't seem to be mentioned by name. If
I can get it to not be compiled, perhaps I can avoid these problems ---
much of the rest of it seemed to compile okay. Any ideas?
Cheers,
Mark.
