I need to make a few points, I guess. kernel-2.2.22 may be an old kernel, but 2.2.22-6.2.2 is the latest patched version of the kernel. If not for the local exploit, I'd happily still be running 2.2.19-6.2.16 I never have, and God willing, I never will, build a kernel. If there is no rpm, then

I just updated the kernel on my (Red Hat 6.2) laptop. The only kernel packages needing updating were kernel, kernel-pcmcia-cs, and kernel-utils. I did them, rewrote lilo, reran lilo, then rebooted. Now pcmcia won't start. Argh! Can anyone help? This is what is being reported when I try to start
