I've finished my install of 1.4rc2 on a Toshiba 2545XCDT laptop, and
networking works *if* I manually run 'cardmgr -f' after bootup. The
conf.d/pcmcia file has CARDMGR_OPTS="-f", but cardmgr doesn't
seem to start automatically. No sign of it in dmesg, nor in a grep of
/etc. Which file should reference cardmgr for boot?

Thanks,
-- Ralph

It depends, have you loaded the correct modules into the kernel ,at boot, in the modules.autoload file?

After adding the correct modules to load at boot time, my cardmgr problems disappeared and I've not had problems since.

My modules.autoload looks like this:

Code:

# /etc/modules.autoload:  kernel modules to load when system boots.
# $Header: /home/cvsroot/gentoo-src/rc-scripts/etc/modules.autoload,v 1.5 2002/1

#
# Add the names of modules that you'd like to load when the system
# starts into this file, one per line.  Comments begin with # and
# are ignored.  Read man modules.autoload for additional details.

# For example:
# 3c59x
pcmcia_core
yenta_socket
ds
xircom_cb
soundcore
nm256_audio


Hope it helps! :wink:

pcmcia should be in your default level

rc-update add pcmcia default

Moving to OTG.

I still don't know where cardmgr is *supposed* to be started, but I
put "cardmgr -f" in the start() function of /etc/runlevels/default/net.eth0
and everything works now. I already had the pcmcia module references
mentioned in the previous replies.

Thanks for the help.

Maybe in the pcmcia script?
