I have mandrake 8.0 installed on an IBM Thinkpad. I also have a
Netgear FA410TX PCMCIA netcard. This card is successfully detected
by mandrake (when I go into KDE control center and click on pcmcia next to
slot 1 is says Netgear FA410). I'm currently trying to get @Home to work
with this
card. I have tried multiple configurations with ip's, DNS's, etc.
The major problem is that when I plug in the ethernet cable from the
cable modem into the network card, the Link/Act light does not go on
(this light should turn on if an ethernet network is detected). Also,
whenever the card is in the laptop and I try to shutdown, Mandrake
hangs on the step "shutting down pcmcia". The only solution is to
power down manually. If I don't put the netcard in, then shutdown
proceeds without any problems. Does anyone have any solution to
either of the two questions I asked? Thanks for any help.
