If somebody has already answered a prior question on the topic, refer to it, quote relevant parts of it. This isn't just being polite, people are more likely to follow up on a question which has already been discussed on the list.

Is pccardd running? Try: $ ps aux | grep pccardd 2. If pccardd is running, look at the output of dmesg: $ dmesg | less You should see some messages at the end of the dmesg which relate to the insertion of the card. Don't retype these messages, save them to a file: $ dmesg > /var/tmp/infofile Then copy them into your message. 3. If you don't see anything useful in the dmesg output, look in /var/log/messages. Again, copy anything relevant. 4. If you don't see anything at all in (2) or (3), try the output of $ pccardc dumpcis Greg -- When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients.
