For some reason mandrake is not autoloading the kernel module for you pcmcia slot. Without this in Linux is unable to detect the slot as a pcmcia slot. modprobe puts that module into the kernel (at which point it realizes that you do have a slot) and restarting the service performs the necessary tasks to have everything reintialize. -- Scott Paul Robertson http://spr.mahonri5.net GnuPG FingerPrint: 09ab 64b5 edc0 903e 93ce edb9 3bcc f8fb dc5d 7601
