I don't understand why it wasn't corrected long ago. My solution is to cd /lib/modules/<version> mv pcmcia pcmcia.bak Admittedly this is just a way of avoiding the real bug in the /etc/rc.d/init.d/pcmcia script. I don't understand the purpose of this pcmcia directory, which just contains symlinks to modules in the kernel directory. It seems completely pointless, as everything works perfectly without it. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail (<80k only): tim /at/ birdsnest.maths.tcd.ie tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland
