Hi,
I've been using a 3c589C with Debian 2.0 Linux. I had to set up
the pcmcia network configuration manually to get things working:
On Debian this involved editing /etc/pcmcia/network.opts to look
something like the following (substitute your own IP address etc...)
# /etc/pcmcia/network.opts...........................
# Network adapter configuration
#
# The address format is "scheme,socket,instance,hwaddr".
#
# Note: the "network address" here is NOT the same as the IP address.
# See the Networking HOWTO. In short, the network address is the IP
# address masked by the netmask.
#
case "$ADDRESS" in
*,*,*,*)
IF_PORT="auto"
# Use BOOTP [y/n]
BOOTP="n"
# IP address
IPADDR="18.83.1.55"
# Netmask
NETMASK="255.255.0.0"
# Network address
NETWORK="18.83.0.0"
# Broadcast address
BROADCAST="18.83.255.255"
# Gateway address
GATEWAY="18.83.0.1"
# Domain name
DOMAIN="mit.edu"
# Nameserver #1
DNS_1="18.72.0.3"
# Nameserver #2
DNS_2="18.71.0.151"
;;
esac
# ...................................................
You could also check that the appropriate modules are loaded with
/sbin/lsmod. On my machine this returns
Module Pages Used by
serial_cs 1 0
3c589_cs 2 1
ds 2 [serial_cs 3c589_cs] 4
i82365 4 2
pcmcia_core 8 [serial_cs 3c589_cs ds i82365] 5
cdrom 1 0
serial 8 [serial_cs] 1
psaux 1 [serial_cs 3c589_cs ds i82365 pcmcia_core cdrom serial]0
lp 2 0
If you dont have the 3c589_cs module loaded you need to check you have it
(look in /lib/modules/pcmcia ) and load it. On Debian you would use the
command insmod (see man page).
Hope this helps,
Mick
