Hi All,
I need your help in getting through this problem.
After installing fedora core 3, my wireless card failed to work, then in the log file i found the following error messages :

Then I did the following work from the root terminal,

$ cardctl ident

done.
Starting PCMCIA services: cardmgr[4062]: open_sock(socket 1) failed: Bad file descriptor

done.
I'm not sure why it is not goding down and saying is in use.... and I could not understand this problem at all.
Could you please let me know if you have solution to this problem..
Thanks & Regards,
Mahendra.
