- What version of modutils are you using? In alot of cases there will be - a /lib/modules/pcmcia sitting around. You might want to delete/move it - elsewhere if you're not using it. - I've downloaded 2.4.19 from kernel.org and used the same .config that resulted in the pcmcia errors and is no longer the case. I'm not new to kernel compiling Usually if I see errors, I take the extra time to go through .config to see if I'd inadvertently check something that I shouldn't have. In this case everything was as I usually configure for a kernel build. Also untill I decided to dwnld a new kernel, I couldn't get my sound card working. (soundblaster 16pci (es1371)) I am now convinced that there was a glitch with the stock Slackware 2.4.18 kernel. Whether this happened during the download of the iso or during the system install I'm not sure. The last time I had probs with compiling a kernel was due to outdated modutils so that was one of the first thing I looked at. Now I have sound working nicely and do not see any pcmcia errors when running "depmod -a" Learning my way arround Slackware has been one eye-opening task. It would have been much easier if Slack would have ussed sysv scripts instead of BSD. I suppose that is what makes linux so adictive, always something new to learn: ) -- Ted Ozolins (VE7TVO) Westbank, B. C.
