Hello!

I'm very new to PCCARD stuff, so excuse if this is an obvious problem.
:-)

today I installed a fresh 4.1 RELEASE on my new laptop.

I bought a Netgear FA410TX Fast Ethernet NIC, which is, according to
pccard.conf, supported by the ed driver.

When I insert the card (still a GENERIC kernel, which has support for
ed devices), the following happens:

/kernel: pccard: card inserted, slot 0
pccard[45]: Card "NETGEAR" ("FA410TX") [Fast Ethernet] [(null)]
[(null)] matched "NETGEAR" ("FA410TX") [(null)] [(null)]
pccard[45]: driver allocation failed for NETGEAR(FA410TX): Device not
configured.

of course, ifconfig doesn't know about an ed0.
I don't know, what is happening here.

When I remove the card, the following appears:

/kernel: pccard: card removed, slot 0
pccard[45]: ed0: NETGEAR (FA410TX) removed.


Any ideas?

Thanks IA

Alex
