Hi guys,
I have a Panasonic Toughbook CF-37 notebook here, and I finally
have the Ricoh cardbus of hell working. :) I now, need to get the driver
for my Linksys WPC11 Version 4.0 Card working. I insert the card, and
upon a

# cardctl status

I get:

Socket 0:
3.3v CardBus Card
function 0: [ready], [bat dead]

Now, when I use the appropriate driver:
I get:

#modprobe rtl8180_24x
/lib/modules/2.4.28-gentoo-r9/pcmcia/rtl8180_24x.o: init_module: No such
device
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters,
including invalid IO or IRQ parameters.
    You may find more information in syslog or the output from dmesg
/lib/modules/2.4.28-gentoo-r9/pcmcia/rtl8180_24x.o:
insmod/lib/modules/2.4.28-gentoo-r9/pcmcia/rtl8180_24x.o failed
/lib/modules/2.4.28-gentoo-r9/pcmcia/rtl8180_24x.o: insmod rtl8180_24x
failed



Here is the dmesg output:
********RTL8180 Wireless Lan Driver 2003-11-24 loaded********
rtl8180: No devices found, RTL8100 Wireless Lan Driver 2003-11-247
unregistered

So ya, thats my perdicament.
Any thoughts?
Thanks!~
Ian

Well, from googling it seems that the driver is still under heavy 
development.  I suggest you may want to email the author with the 
relevant line from "lspci" (since it is really a cardbus card, not pcmcia).

See http://rtl8180-sa2400.sourceforge.net/

Also, others seem to have gotten this card to work with ndis and the 
windows driver.
