I have been trying to get my Toshiba Satellite Pro 4600 with mini-PCI wireless up and running. I have tried every tip and suggestion on the forum and still nothing. I am running the r6 of 2.4.20 kernel, and have pcmcia-cs and wlan-ng installed as well.

At boot time, the device is found and initializes for a few seconds once pcmcia is loaded. Then the device shuts down. I am not able to access it via iwconfig, although I can see the device via lspci and cardctl info:

sisko grub # cardctl info
PRODID_1="TOSHIBA"
PRODID_2="Wireless LAN Card"
PRODID_3="Version 01.01"
PRODID_4=""
MANFID=0156,0002
FUNCID=6
PRODID_1=""
PRODID_2=""
PRODID_3=""
PRODID_4=""
MANFID=0000,0000
FUNCID=255
PRODID_1=""
PRODID_2=""
PRODID_3=""
PRODID_4=""
MANFID=0000,0000
FUNCID=255

And still nothing... So any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

what do your logs say, either kernel, dmesg etc?

Why does it say it's shutting down?

have you tried restarting the device using the pcmcia tools?
(sorry, can't figure out the command right now - I'm sitting in front of a desktop box)
