Jim, I can't pretend to know what's going on, but I'll relate my own experiences with this transition. When I first booted my 2.6.0 kernel, I had exactly this problem. It turned out that, in my case, the yenta_socket module was not loaded by cardmgr. I don't know how the problem was corrected, except that the next time I booted the kernel, cardmgr loaded the module, the card was recognized and configured as in my 2.4 kernel. > > `cardmgr ident' gives: > > Socket 0: no product info available > > I spent a long time trying to persuade the pcmcia subsytem to notice > the existence of the card before realizing that this was not in fact a > cardmgr problem at all.

Debian Users, I'm having a problem getting my PCMCIA wireless network card working. Whenever I insert the card, I get the message: orinoco_cs: RequestIRQ: Resource in use.

I don't have any other PCMCIA cards to test, but I would guess they would behave the same. usb-uhci, eth0, and the PCMCIA drivers are compiled as modules.

Just to make a subtle distinction here, I'll point out that the function of devfsd is not to provide devfs, but to make devfs backwards-compatible with the old naming scheme.

Where to keep .gnupg?
Knowledgeable Debian Users, As a part of developing security-conscious habits, I have kept my .gnupg directory on removeable media (first a floppy, then a zip disk). Recently, however, I have found that when I mount my ext2-formatted zip disk, the disk quickly becomes unreadable (it led to kernel panic at one point). I have tried using a dos-formatted zip disk, but I get errors whenever gpg needs to write to the disk (something about not being able to lock the file/directory, it's been awhile). Given the transient nature of floppy disks (work one day, fail the next), I would rather not keep my keys there. With as many problems as I have had, I have been trying to brainstorm alternatives. One thought I had was to write the files to which I need only read access to removeable media, and keep the rest in my home directory. Does anyone have any thoughts in this regard? Thanks, Nate btw, if anyone knows why my zip drive (USB-powered Zip250) is destroying my zip disks, I'd like to know, also. -- "And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain.
