pcmcia-cs was updated to 3.2.3 after "emerge -u world". Then it does not work. On the boot screen I way messages like " .... orinoco_cs.o : unresolved symbol hermes_init .....". And here's the output of lsmod:
Quote:

Module Size Used by Not tainted
ds 7112 2
i82365 27072 2
pcmcia_core 53536 0 [ds i82365]
sr_mod 12056 0 (unused)
sg 25356 0 (unused)
ide-scsi 7376 0
scsi_mod 50820 3 [sr_mod sg ide-scsi]

I remember I recompiled the kernel (without changing anything concerning pcmcia) after the update. But that shouldn't be a problem. I've recompiled the kernel before, without doing anything to get pcmcia to work after recompilation.

Could anybody help me out? Thanks.

From the output of lsmod it seems that you have pcmcia working ok.... All the need modules were loaded.
Try running a depmoad -a and see what modules complain of dependencies. Only the orinoco drivers give problems? Do you need them (they are for orinoco wireless cards) If not just forget the error or delete the modules.

depmod -a gives:
Quote:
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.4.19-gentoo-r10/misc/svgalib_helper.o

I think it has nothing to do with the wireless card.

Yes I'm using a orinoco card, so the problem is fatal. Is it possible that the orinoco_cs.o I have is not compatible with pcmcia 3.2.3?

Thanks.

What happens when you do a manual modprobe of orinoco_cs or hermes ? Did you remerge pcmcia-cs after you built your kernel? You have to do that as make modules_install blows away the /lib/modules/foo directory.
