Kernel 2.2.1...*ponder* Well, I just setup 2.2.1 and my network broke
also (using 2.0.36 kernel now which I know works). You w ouldn't havppen
to be getting the message "modules.....could not find net-pf-5..." or
something like that where ... is something I can't remember..:) (in other
words I cn't remember the exact message, but net-pf-5 and something about
can't find is in there). Anyway, it causes my link light to light up, but
I don't get any network information from the card at all.(no ip, dns,
etc...using dhcp)...anyone out there know what the problem is or what
module "net-pf-5" is? I did a search through the /lib/modules/ directory
for something like this (figuring it was missed in pcmcia re-compile) but
it doesn't seem to be there at all.

p.s. I apoligize for spaamming this list today with my questions..but as
always, setup of linux is usually supposed to be trivial, but isn't..:)
