Only problem now is, its not hot pluggable;(
I have tried to manually force the driver module in the automagic box, but the dialog boxes seem unwriteable in this mode.
Is there any other way to force use of a particular driver, whilst retaining hotplug capablility?

If you want it hot plubable, add a line to /etc/hotplug/pci.handmap Here is my version of that file.... (turn wordwrap off...) # # This file contains modutils format pcimap entries # with special driver mappings that the kernel # for some reason does not expose through modutils # # In most cases is it enough to write the pci id to the 2nd and 3rd field and # the rest like the following example: # eni 0x0000111a 0x00000000 0xffffffff 0xffffffff 0x00000000 0x00000000 0x00000000 # # pci module vendor device subvendor subdevice class class_mask driver_data your-driver-name 0x168c 0x0013 0xffffffff 0xffffffff 0x00000000 0x00000000 0x00000000 The second and third column values can be discerned by tailing /var/log/messages while you plug in the card. Once you set the handmap file it will load that driver name (don't put any extensions on the file name). You might have to go into yast and make sure that the hotplug service is handling pci events and pcmcia too. Note that you do this to the pci.handmap and not any pcmcia drivers. -- _____________________________________ John Andersen
