dirver for that PCMCIA card. There is a dependency in the /etc/init.d/net.eth1 for PCMCIA.
I don't know what else to add there :(

Hi,
I installed a netgear 802.11g card on my laptop for wireless access. With latest vanilla-source (~x86) everything was working fine.
Then, I changed the kernel to latest gentoo-sources (~x86). Now the wireless connection doesn't connect automatically after boot. I have added it to the default runlevel.
Now everytime, I have to start it explcitly by:
/etc/init.d/net.eth1 stop /etc/init.d/net.eth1 start
I have to stop first, cause it say it is already started. What could be the problem. I will appreciate any help.
If this were a Prism-based card using the linux-wlan-ng ebuild, I'd say that you need to be sure to start up the wireless LAN (/etc/init.d/wlan) before you start up the network device. This could be accomplished by adding a dependency in /etc/init.d/net.eth1.
Since you're not using that particular software... the best I can do is an educated guess: you might have a similar dependency for that software. That is, there might be some other system that has to start up first for eth1 to come up properly.
