The following modules are provided with the pcmcia_orinoco.lrp package:
# ls -la /lib/modules/pcmcia drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 May 25 08:22 ./ drwxrwxrwt 27 root root 4096 May 25 07:52 ../ -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 11520 May 11 19:08 ds.o -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 7960 May 11 19:08 hermes.o -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 38488 May 11 19:08 i82365.o -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 43668 May 11 19:08 orinoco.o -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 7888 May 11 19:08 orinoco_cs.o -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 57393 May 11 19:08 pcmcia_core.o
Check that the PCMCIA modules provided in the pcmcia_orinoco.lrp
package fit your needs. If not, download the appropriate modules from the
Bering PCMCIA modules download
area in the /lib/modules/pcmcia
directory.
Refer to the Bering installation guide
to learn how to do that.
Enter the LEAF Package configuration menu and choose pcmcia. The following menu will appear
pcmcia configuration files 1) pcmcia card local configuration file 2) pcmcia default parameters 3) pcmcia card configuration database q) quit ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Selection:
Entry 1) allows to edit the /etc/pcmcia/config.opts
file. The default file provided in the pcmcia.lrp package is the one
provided in the pcmcia-cs package. It looks like:
# # System resources available for PCMCIA devices # include port 0x100-0x4ff, port 0x800-0x8ff, port 0xc00-0xcff include memory 0xc0000-0xfffff, memory 0xa0000000-0xa0ffffff, memory 0x60000000-0x60ffffff # # Resources we should not use, even if they appear to be available # # First built-in serial port exclude irq 4 # Second built-in serial port exclude irq 12 # First built-in parallel port exclude irq 7
Refer to the PCMCIA How-to for the explanation of the different options. In most cases you won't need to edit this file.
Entry 2) allows to edit the /etc/default/pcmcia
file which defines the pcmcia parameters that will be used by the cardmgr
program and the /etc/init.d/pcmcia
script.
In our practical example (an Orinoco gold card) this file will contain:
PCMCIA=yes PCIC=i82365.o PCIC_OPTS= CORE_OPTS= CARDMGR_OPTS=
You may need to specify something like: PCIC_OPTS=i365_base=0x3e2 if you are using an ISA/PCMCIA adapter.
Entry 3) allows to edit the /etc/pcmcia/config
file which contains the configuration database for common cards using the orinoco driver. If your card
is not present declare it either in the config of in the config.opts file.
