I get these kinds of messages on my vaio sr17 when I use precompiled |
| 2 |
kernels. Usually, I just compile my own kernel with support for pcmcia |
| 3 |
and the nic I got and the problem goes away. Try to go for a minimal |
| 4 |
kernel, the most features you got compiled in the more chances of it |
| 5 |
going wrong. |
