Thanks for your reply! Here's the output if I try external: # /etc/init.d/pcmcia start Starting external PCMCIA /lib/modules/2.4.18-64GB-SMP/pcmcia-external/i82365.o: invalid parameter parm_probe_io /lib/modules/2.4.18-64GB-SMP/pcmcia-external/i82365.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.18-64GB-SMP/pcmcia-external/i82365.o failed /lib/modules/2.4.18-64GB-SMP/pcmcia-external/i82365.o: insmod i82365 failed failed I looked in that folder and found no yenta_socket so it seems that I cannot use that approach. Any other suggestions? Ico On Monday 20 May 2002 09:07, you wrote:
What about PCMCIA_SYSTEM="external" ?

Hi all!
I've just finished installing Suse 8.0 on my laptop (inspiron 8200) and am having some problems with the pcmcia service. It freezes my cpu every time I boot. I've looked already through the search database and found out what was the cause but here's the confusing part:
If I do: modprobe pcmcia_core modprobe yenta_socket modprobe ds
Everything starts just fine and the pcmcia slots work fine.
However, if I do, /etc/init.d/pcmcia start -> it freezes
Here's my /etc/sysconfig/pcmcia file (which I altered accordingly but it makes no difference):
# # There are two PCMCIA Systems available: The external from D.Hinds, # which has proven to work flawlessly, and a newer one included in # the kernel source tree, which may be neccessary with some (new) # hardware. You can choose here which one you like to use. Set the # variable to "external" or "kernel". # If there is only one of these systems installed this varable will # be ignored. # PCMCIA_SYSTEM="kernel"
# This variable lets you manually controls which socket driver will # be used for the choosen pcmcia system. Valid Values are "i82365" # or "tcic" for dhinds pcmcia or "yenta_socket", "i82365" or "tcic" # for kernel pcmcia. # If it is left empty, the start script will determine it or use a # reasonable default, so you don't have to set it in most cases. # PCMCIA_PCIC="yenta_socket"
# # PCMCIA_PCIC_OPTS - socket driver timing parameters here. These # parameters are described in "man i82365" (or "man tcic"). # e.g.: PCMCIA_PCIC_OPTS="par1=val1 par2=val21,val22 par3=val3" # For more information, look for "PCIC_OPTS" in the PCMCIA-HOWTO. # You can find it under /usr/doc/packages/pcmcia. # These options will be ignored if you use kernel PCMCIA. (Exactly when # yenta_socket has been choosen) # # If PCMCIA locks your System, try the following option with a list # of free interrupts (and which won't be used later) and/or disable # the use of pci interrupts. # e.g. PCMCIA_PCIC_OPTS="irq_list=3,4,5,7,9,10,11 pci_int=0" # PCMCIA_PCIC_OPTS="probe_io=0"
# # PCMCIA_CORE_OPTS - Put pcmcia_core options here. These options # are described in "man pcmcia_core" # For more information, look for "CORE_OPTS" in the PCMCIA-HOWTO. # You can find it under /usr/doc/packages/pcmcia. # These options are used both for external and kernel PCMCIA. # PCMCIA_CORE_OPTS=""
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
