In Reply to: [gentoo-user] pcmcia problems (cardmgr can't find device) by "Lucien D."
1 Hint: Avoid d-link DWL-G650+ (atheros ACX111) based cards - they have a
2 resource conflict with this laptop resulting in a hard lockup.
3 Interesting, it works under dozeXP after loading the manufacturers
4 driver as per instructions (ndiswrapper, madwifi and the acx100 project
5 all suffer from this)

7 Make sure you compile as modules (doesnt seem to work when monolithic),
8 and check /etc/conf.d/pcmcia - mine is standard, but in the past I did
9 have to force yenta_socket to load and not the default (problem since
10 gone away)
11
12 Let me know if you need anything else

18 Default pcmcia loads the modules on startup (i have not modified it at
19 all), then card specific ones on insertion:
