Can anyone give me some >pointers as to how to rebuild the pcmcia modules? Depends on what kernel you are using. the 2.4 sources have the pcmcia stuff included. If it's a stable kernel, and you wanna use the debian stuff, you'll need kernel-source-<kernel-version> or you can just get a tarball of the pcmcia source and do it that way. You don't _have_ to use make-kpkg, it's recommended if you wanna install the kernel you compile on many machines or if you wanna archive it for some reason. > >Thanks, > >Dave > > >_______________________________________________ >tclug-list mailing list >tclug-list at lists.real-time.com >https://mailman.real-time.com/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
