7 I am not sure what to tell you. What changed was that we moved from a

11 What happens if you modprobe i82365 ? That autoloads pcmcia_core, so I
12 would like to think that you get the same behavior, but it is something
13 to try. Exactly what steps do you use with the rc6 CD? Where is the
14 pcmcia_core module that you are insmod'ing?

20 You can file a bug, but I will need a bit more information, as the
21 modules on the 1.0 CD work fine for me.
