which version of the rtl8139.c driver are u using?
When comparing the init_module()-fragment of the rtl8139.c that came
with the 2.2.14 kernel (v1.07) with the current version (v1.16a):

v1.07:

int init_module(void)
{
return rtl8139_probe(0);
}

v1.16a:

int init_module(void)
{
if (debug)  /* Emit version even if no cards detected. */
printk(KERN_INFO "%s" KERN_INFO "%s", versionA, versionB);
#ifdef CARDBUS
register_driver(&realtek_ops);
return 0;
#else
return pci_drv_register(&rtl8139_drv_id, NULL);
#endif
}

...I somehow get the impression that CARDBUS support might not have
been present in the earlier version of the driver.  So, it might be
worth trying a newer version.  Not sure, though, whether the new
version will work with the old kernel -- but why not simply try?
There isn't much to lose ;)   If the most recent version doesn't
compile/work, maybe some other version in between v1.07-1.16 does.

Also, as you said you already had it working in RH 6.1, you might want
to figure out which mix of versions was in use there, and try those...

 Mr. Serralheiro:

   My first email references to lsmod output (same as cat /proc/modules)
on "additional info".
   Such module isn't loaded in order that I can't even use ifconfig. It
says something like "eth0: no such interface.".

 Mr. Erdmut:

   My problem isn't any IRQ Conflit. I already had RedHat 6.1 installed
working with pcmcia. Didn't changed bios setup. Unfortunally i didn't
wrote any documentation... ;(

  Thanks in advance.

   Nuno

  That's what lsmod give, /proc/modules that is.

  It does not seem to be loaded.

check whether your BIOS has a "Windows 9x support" option or some
b*llsh*t like that -- and if so, try to disable it.

On my ASUS notebook, I initially got the same error, which was solved by
disabling said option.
This notebook has an *onboard* NIC (same RealTek chip), however, so YMMV...

For details on the issue, see Donald Becker's pages, in particular:

well, try to see if the module is already loaded

cat /proc/modules gives a list of all modules loaded.
If you have an entry in here then all you have to do is ifconfig

Realtek module don't want to be loaded! Is too busy... ;)

2001-11-21 Thread Nuno Emanuel F. Carvalho 
Hi there,

  I'm having problems on getting my pcmcia card to work on Debian.
  Already compiled RTL8139 as module from kernel and installed pcmcia-cs
tarball.
  In my opinion, problem is from rtl8139 module:

  $ insmod rtl8139
/lib/modules/2.2.14/net/rtl8139.o: init_module: Device or resource busy

  On linux boot I'm able to hear high and low tones so it seems the card
is detected.

  I'd also copied
/lib/modules/2.2.14/net/rtl8139.o
to
/lib/modules/2.2.14/pcmcia/realtek_cb.o

  Where's the problem ?

  Thanks in advance.

  Best regards,
 Nuno Carvalho
