It is an old problem. You should set BIOS setting of PCMCIA to
"cardbus" or "PCMCIA", but not "auto".

[expert] Mandrake 7.1 on Toshiba Portege Laptop - PCMCIA issues

2000-06-10 Thread davidu

Hi,

I have installed Mandrake 7.1 (via FTP) to my laptop, however, bootup
hangs when it reaches the Loading PCMCIA Modules part.  If I disable
PCMCIA from bootup, everything comes up fine. (minus my network card)

Now, I have tried a few things.  

a) I booted up without any PCMCIA cards inserted, and it still hangs.

b) It also hangs with a PCMCIA card in the laptop (3COM Megahertz 10/100)

Has anyone else experianced something like this?  What is a
workaround?  I need net access, obviously.  Is there a newer version of
PCMCIA-tools?  

Thanks
