Description of problem: I have installed FC5 on my Compaq v2630us Laptop. I have always used compaq'a as they work easily with Fedora until now. I have a two fold problem. First my PCMCIA slot does not work. I have tried adding the line pci=assign-busses and pci=routeirq and no joy. I also have updated to the latest PCMCIAutils package and still nothing. Secondly my memory card reader isn't working either. On the attached lspci text it's the flashMedia controller. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 012-0.FC5.2 How reproducible: After 3 fresh installs it happens everytime. Steps to Reproduce: 1.install OS 2.Insert PCMCIA card dlink DWL-G650 3.lspci and it's not there. Actual results: Expected results: should work, works in FC4 Additional info: I have searched the internet and Fedora wiki's for info and I am out of ideas. The PCMCIA works in SuSe 10 but not the memory card reader. Although I can't stand SUSE 10 and really want to work in FC5.

For my DWL-G650, I have to compile the madwifi drivers seperatly.
Yes I know how to compile the drivers for madwifi. I would do just that too, if my card was even seen in PCMCIA slot. There is power in the PCMCIA slot but that's all.
