What's the recommended way this year to set up pcmcia?
Apparently pcmcia-cs is deprecated, so I unmerged and installed pcmciautils. Now during boot, I get the above message with a yellow star.
What package does the pcmcia initscript belong to, and is it even needed (it seems not, since my cardbus ethernet card works.)
?

rc-update del pcmcia
The init script was provided by pcmcia-cs which is indeed deprecated. The script should have been removed from all run levels for you when you unmerged pcmcia-cs.
Anyway, udev is probably responsible for hotplugging your module at boot time and this is why it works.

Oh. No, the problem is that /etc/init.d/pcmcia is not found, and a warning is issued during boot. rc-update show does not list pcmcia.
If it's correct that there is no pcmcia init script, why is the warning printed?
I should have formulated the question better. I have no init script, and want to get rid of the warning. |

The warning is definitely printed by the rc scripts.
Even if it doesn't show up with rc-update show
you should be able to run rc-update del pcmcia and I'd be surprised if it didn't fix it coz I had the exact same problem with ventrilo yesterday. I can't see what else would try to invoke an init.d script...

This is a small bug then it seems. I'll reboot and see.
Edit: Rebooting confirms this solved it. Thanks!
Looks like a bug with the pcmcia-cs ebuild, leaving a broken runlevel entry. |

Glad it solved it. Feel free to open a ticket on Bugzilla to report this.
