Thanks! But...I edited all the appropriate (potential) entries for my pci-pcmcia bridge (O2 Micro) so they read i82365 instead of yenta but when I restart pcmcia, it STILL says it will use yenta instead of i82365. I ended up replacing every single "yenta_socket" entry with "i82365" in pcitable but when I restart pcmcia I still get yenta! I ran harddrake and checked it after editing and it indicates i82365 now in place of yenta_socket... Do I have to reboot? Is there something else I need to do? My /etc/sysconfig/pcmcia file is set to i82365 as well. Mandrake 9.0 wont give in to my superior judgement here! praedor
