You're arbitrarily nuking things from the source tree. Don't do that. :-) You need to enable a couple of meta-items in the kernel config (e.g. "support for hot-pluggable devices" and the generic top-level "Wireless LAN" option), but not enable specific device drivers (e.g. "PCMCIA/CardBus support"). If you don't enable the options in the kernel configuration, they won't get built by the kernel build, and won't conflict with the pcmcia-cs modules. -- David Maze [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://people.debian.org/~dmaze/ "Theoretical politics is interesting.
