I posted a PCMCIA howto a couple of weeks ago http://lists.gentoo.org/pipermail/gentoo-user/2002-March/007488.html Basically, you probably want to unconfigure pcmcia in your kernel, install it, and then emerge pcmcia-cs. You shouldn't need to bother with /etc/init.d/pcmcia; the configuration settings are in /etc/conf.d/pcmcia. -- Chad Huneycutt try { Windows } Ph.D. Student catch ( Exception BSOD ) Georgia Tech College of Computing { linux }; http://www.cc.gatech.edu/~chadh
