Steve Scrimpshire Posted November 27, 2003 Report Share Posted November 27, 2003 Background: When I first installed 9.2 on my laptop, I used LZ's tutorial from here: http://www.mandrakeusers.org/index.php?showtopic=5494 and did this: [root@localhost omar]# cardctl ident Socket 0: product info: "TOSHIBA", "Wireless LAN Card", "Version 01.01", "" manfid: 0x0156, 0x0002 function: 6 (network) Socket 1: no product info available and added this to /etc/pcmcia/config: card "2412LAN Ethernet" manfid 0x0156, 0x0002 bind "orinoco_cs" and it worked. Since then, I installed Gentoo over my MDK install, didn't like it and reinstalled 9.2. Well, now I can't get the wireless card to even show up anywhere. I get this: [root@localhost omar]# cardctl ident no pcmcia driver in /proc/devices [root@localhost omar]# modprobe yenta_socket [root@localhost omar]# modprobe pcmcia_core [root@localhost omar]# modprobe ds [root@localhost omar]# cardctl ident Socket 0: no product info available Socket 1: no product info available And the ethernet card does not show up in harddrake. On my original install, it shoewd up in harddrake even before adding the stuff to /etc/pcmcia/config. I've tried just adding the stuff into /etc/pcmcia/config that I got before, but still nothing happens. Any ideas besides reinstalling and hoping it works again?
