I posted a request for help in configuring a pc card last week but I've
had no reply. I've ben playing with it a lot since then but I still can't
get it to work.
The information below is still valid and if anyone has an idea why I
can't get it to work, I'd be very grateful.
I'm running 4.3-RELEASE on an IBM ThinkPad 600.
I've looked for an if_ed.ko module but I can't find one anywhere, so I
can't load it manually. Do I need to do something special in the kernel
configuration file to get the ed device compiled in for pccard use?

I just bought myself a Surecom EP-427X PCMCIA ethernet card for use on my
Thinkpad 600, as it was listed in the list of compatible hardware as an
NE2000 clone.
I set up the ed driver in my kernel config (device ed) and set up an
entry in pccard.conf, as the card identified itself differently than the
Surecom in the default pccard.conf.
card "CouplerlessPCMCIA" "100BASE"
config auto "ed" ?
insert /etc/pccard_ether $device start
remove /etc/pccard_ether $device stop
I think the identification may be different to that in the default
pccard.conf because it's a new version of the card with no dongle. I was
hoping so anyway.
When I insert the card, it matches the entry in pccard.conf but fails to
get going properly with the following messages from pccardd[114]: driver
allocation failed for CouplerlessPCMCIA(100BASE): Device not configured.
Could anyone help me out with what I've done wrong here.
Thanks.
