Hi. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but if you use the pcmcia-cs package,
you _have_ to use the binary kernel image it corresponds with too. So, if
you upgrade pcmcia-cs, you'll need to get the kernel image that goes with
it. If I _am_ wrong, sorry - that's been my experience.
What I normally do is just install the pcmcia-source package, and compile
it with the settings from the custom kernel that I have installed.
Later,
Dale
