Subject: PCMCIA in hotplug: Configuration

Message-ID: <000c01c63aeb$0a8260c0$600d000a@gabriel> (raw)

Hello!

With the recent move of pcmcia to hotplug (kernel 2.6.13 ->), a person has 
to re-learn everything to use it...  In pcmcia there was a file 
(/etc/pcmcia/config) that had the card database that told pcmcia which 
driver to use... My question is basically, WHERE is the equivalent file in 
hotplug with this information?

More directly, SuSE 10, 2.6.15 kernel (custom), when I insert a 2511 200Mw 
pcmcia card, it loads the orinoco driver... not uncommon, quick fix was 
comment out any entry in /etc/pcmcia/config for orinoco that indicates the 
card, in particular, any entries that had the same manfid as the 2511.  This 
would leave the correct entries of prism2_cs and/or hostap_cs (which is what 
I want) I usually commented out the prism2_cs entries too.  Which file, or 
what command, or whatever, do I edit to make the hostap driver I custom 
compile load correctly?

I had initially posted to the pcmcia list and got 1 response that said to 
remove the orinoco driver or use the blacklist thing in hotplug, this 
succeeded in makeing nothing load at all when the card is inserted. It 
registers the pcmcia device, but doesnt load any drivers.  The post also 
indicated I should ask here...  ;)

Thanks for any help...
