Re: [newbie] PCMCIA Problem !
Thorsten, let's do this step by step. I almost chucked a Linksys fast-ethernet 10/100 because I couldn't figure out what the missing link was. I am not promoting the drinking of alcoholic beverages, but it worked for me. Anyway, back to the problem. Lets check out the following: Go into Drakconf and look at what has been enabled at bootup. Is your dongle one with lights? if so, are they lighting up-no: go to drakconf (traffic light icon)and enable pcmcia. no: I would look at ir conflict. yes: assume it's an eth0 problem. Are you on a cable modem? other LAN setup? do you have a static or dynamic IP address? if dynamic, make sure dhcp is enabled under Drakconf - ifyou dont see it as an option(it wasn't initially in my install) just install the rpm from the install cd. You should get all systems go when you reboot. - Original Message - From: "Eunice Thompson" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, June 07, 2000 10:55 PM Subject: Re: [newbie] PCMCIA Problem ! Exchange it if you can for a D-Link or 3COM. I purchased an Ambicomm 10/100 PCMCIA card for my laptop and followed all of the included instructions and couldn't get it to work.

Hi everybody, i have a short question on PCMCIA. I am using the PCMCIA-Version wich was shipped with LM 7.0. It is the Version 3.1.9. I bought a AboCom PCMCIA CardBus Networtcard. On installation i left the Card in the CardBusSlot of my Notebook. LM 7.0 detects it but "insmod tulip" failed, without any showen error. After installation i went to "netconf" and set the network up. Here are my settings. IP:192.168.1.3 NM:255.255.255.0 Interface eth0 Modul tulip In lothar the card is recognized too, and in the KDE-Controlpanel the Card is showen as as LinkSys 10/100 Fast Ethernet-Card. The "ifconfig" shows that the interface is up and running using the IRQ 9. It can ping to itself but not to the other computers. On startup PCMCIA is started and the LED´s of the PCMCIA-connector are on. That shows me that the card is connectet to the 100Mbit swith in full duplex. But then came the message up "Tx hung 13. vs. 0". I have tried everythig. I also postet the message-files to the AboCom-Support. They say that everything is alright and they can´t understand why this card wont work. Has someone outthere any suggestion how to solve this probleme? Thanks Thorsten PS.On the basis of my bad english i hope you will understand what probleme defenatly i have !!!

I followed the directions on the web site and it boots fine except for one thing. As the list of services starting scrolls by, it fails to start eth0 since it loads before the pcmcia services start. Where can I change the order of how the services start? Thanks for any help anybody can give me. Gottit. In /etc/rc.d/rc.3 the files S* are the startup files for system service such as networks. They are run in numerical order so S01kerneld is run before S45pcmcia. The trick is to get the pcmcia startup script to run before S10network. So I moved S45pcmcia to S05pcmcia and up she came. Steve, is this a bug or a "feature" to try and setup the network _before_ a pcmcia network card has been loaded? Looks like a bug to me! -- Steve Philp [EMAIL PROTECTED]
