Hi there,
I have installed RH 8.0 on a Toshiba Tecra 740CDT. All seemed to go well but now I want to connect it to the network.
When I set the 'PC Card Controller Mode' in BIOS (v6.70) to 'Cardbus/16-bit' I get 'PCMCIA/PC-Card Services' showing up in the Hardware Browser. When I set the BIOS to 'PCIC Compatible' I do not see this in the Hardware Browser.
Also when I see the 'PCMCIA/PC-Card Services' showing up in the Hardware Browser the 3com PC Card 3cce589et does not show up on the Hardware tab of the Network Configuration. However when I don't see the 'PCMCIA/PC-Card Services' the card is detected but not configured with MEM, IRQ etc.
Sounds a bit back to front to me. I need all the help I can get as Ihave only been using linux for 2 days.
Any help in getting the network up and running would be great.
P.S. my /etc/sysconfig/PCMCIA file has the following settings
PCMCIA=yes
PCIC=i82365
PCIC_OPTS="irqlist=7,9,11"
CORE_OPTS=
