So it is nice I dont have to prove it.

To unsubs
the whole pcmcia does not work in 2.4.
Not with latest cardmgr.
What makes airo_cs to work is that pcmcia package
and kernel modules are replaced.
That is what most of distros do.
Which overwrites kernel standard ones and really fucks things up
for pcmcia drivers being in kernel.

I dont know, if it is bug or feature, but,

Annoys, should not be the default behaviour, IMHO.
