I've been a Windogs user for ages.
Now I want to switch to Linux, and chose RedHat 9, but I can't get to work my 3Com Megahertz 3CCFE574BT LAN PCCard on my Toshiba Satellite2100.
It was supposed to be detected when installing, but looks like it didn't.
When at boot, I only get these messages:
Linux Kernel Card Services 3.1.22
options: [pci] [cardbus] [pm]
PCI: No IRQ known for interrupt pin A of device 00:13.0.
PCI: No IRQ known for interrupt pin B of device 00:13.1.
ds: no socket drivers loaded!

I'm completely new on Linux and I don't know if I have to set some IRQs or something.
Thanks in advance if you can help me.

I suggest you get a fresh pci.ids file.

You may only have to run update-pciids.
I'm not sure if it's included or not in RH9..

Also, do you have a file in /etc/init.d/ called pcmcia* ?
You may need to make sure it is starting in your runlevel, usu runlevel 5.
Do chkconfig --list to see what is being started..

hi dere,
I am also using dis 3com card and have got a solution... But da prb is dat you have to do it every time you restart ur system..
Well da thing is:- go to lib/modules/2.4.x(wat ever ur kernel version is)/kernel/drivers/pcmcia and dere
run
modprobe pcmcia_core
modprobe i8235(full name except dat .o in all modules)
modprobe ds
den move to /lib/modules/2.4.x/kernel/drivers/net/pcmcia/
modprobe 3c574(full name except dat .o part)

..

Den run "cardmgr"

leave it for 5-10 secs..

Den use ip -a

If you still have got prb, let me know..
Thank you
