Description Ed Pare 2004-06-15 21:38:41 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040510

Description of problem:
During boot, text message indicates eth1 cannot be initialized since
it doesn't seem to be present.  Running system-config-network, and
trying to activate eth1 results in: "orinoco_cs device eth1 does not
seem to be present, delaying initialization."  The same system and
card configuration worked fine in FC1.



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-2.6.6-1.427

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.From cold machine,
2.Insert Orinoco card in PCMCIA slot
3.restart machine
    

Actual Results:  Nothing

Expected Results:  Indicators on card should light, indicating power
and networking.

Re-installed FC2 without card in pcmcia slot.  After all updates were
applied, installed card.  Opened system-config-network GUI, added the
device, and activated it.  Works fine.

Presumably on the original install, 'alias eth1 orinoco_cs' was in
/etc/modprobe.conf?

No response to query, closing.
