hello, i'm trying to setup my dell i8100 to use a orinoco card. I got the card working fine under Win2k, but I cannot figure out how to get it to work under suse 7.3. When I insert the card I get the two beeps sound and if I lsmod the hermes and orinoco modules are loaded. When I try to modprobe orinoco_cs i get the following errors: # modprobe orinoco_cs /lib/modules/2.4.16-4GB/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/orinoco_cs.o: init_module: Operation not permitted Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters /lib/modules/2.4.16-4GB/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/orinoco_cs.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.16-4GB/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/orinoco_cs.o failed /lib/modules/2.4.16-4GB/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/orinoco_cs.o: insmod orinoco_cs failed As was suggested in the PCMCIA howto (for an i8k not i8100) i tried excluding the port 0x800-0x8ff # cardctl status 0 5V 16-bit PC Card function 0: [ready] # cardmgr modpath = (null) modsubdir = (null) # cardctl ident 0 product info: "Lucent Technologies", "WaveLAN/IEEE", "Version 01.01", "" manfid: 0x0156, 0x0002 function: 6 (network) # iwconfig lo no wireless extensions. eth0 no wireless extensions. eth1 no wireless extensions. # cat /var/lib/pcmcia/stab Socket 0: Intersil PRISM2 11 Mbps Wireless Adapter Socket 1: empty i am fresh out of ideas for the time being, any help would be greatly appreciated.
