Description Sammy 2001-01-18 20:58:43 UTC 
Stock kernel 2.4.0 and pcmcia package as provided in rawhide falis
to initialize some cards on my notebook. Mainly my ethernet card
3C..575... which was driven by 3c575_cb in the old package and worked
fine. If I use the kernel pcmcia it just doesn't even detect the
card (it does fine on my modem card in the next slot!)...Only way I
could get it to work was to exclude pcmcia support from the kernel,
and build the pcmcia package with CONFIG_PCMCIA=n so that it build all
the drivers....this still does not work with the current pcmcia-cs
package since this has different config file that assigns 3c575 to
3c59x driver...so going back to pcmcia-cs package from 2.2.16 kernel
did the job.
