It is the replacement for the standard i8xxxxx driver that used to be used
by pcmcia.
I would do an ldmod and see what is still loaded. The yenta_socket.o
should be loaded from /lib/modules/2.4.7-1mdk/kernel/drivers/pcmcia.
(Actually it depends on how the code was built. I would think the kernel
version would take precidence, but I would have to check the build.)
If pcmcia_core, i82365, and/or ds are loaded, use rmmod to unload them,
then rerun /etc/init.d/pcmcia restart.
Also, someone might want to make sure that all occurances of "ide_cs" get
renamed as "ide-cs" in /etc/pcmcia/config. There is a change between the
2.2.x kernels and the 2.4.x kernels for the ide pcmcia module. (And no,
you cannot just rename the module.)
Of course, i cannot get it to work at all, but that is another problem. (I
think...)
