help - wireless card no longer recognized?
For several months I was a happy camper using redhat 8.1 on an ibm thinkpad t23 with an orinoco wireless data card.
One day recently, after starting up from sleep mode,the machine hung. On reboot, it couldn't get past the pcmcia support. I chkconfig'd the pcmcia support out in order to get something going, then after booting, played with various things, upto and including uninstalling the pcmcia rpm and re-installing. No luck - pcmcia support hangs the boot process. Today I installed redhat 9. Now it will boot with pcmcia, but it pretends the card is not there. Cannot activate network eth1. I know the hardware is good because when I boot the machine in windoze mode, the wireless connection works just fine. Where do I start debugging this? Any help appreciated. |
This seems like it might be at the root of the problem. Ideas as to how to fix?
