Networking :: PCMCIA network Card: Linksys NP100

Quote (AD1B @ Mar. 02 2007,22:43)

I did not realize that ".inf" files are Win files... Will take your suggestion to "export cc=gcc" - have to read up on topic to have a better grasp of concept.

Among others?

I did go to kernel.org and have downloaded the 2.4.28 kernel source file.  Ran thru PCMCIA-CS file re-compile successfully at one point.  Have to go back - revisit process.

Why are you compiling a kernel instead of just loading a module that's already there?

Hint:
modprobe pcnet_cs

Try that (in a root term or sudo). It already works with the kernel that came with DSL. Please don't make things more difficult than they actually are.

Your note that the kernelsource.dsl only provides "headers" was good info - it agrees w/ my observation that the "./Configure" script bonked when it tried to use those files.

It's sensitive to case of letter: ./configure works, ./Configure won't. Regardless, you're totally reinventing the wheel. Totally.

Really appreciate your help - hope to get the Linksys PCMCIA card to work.  Will update this site w/ my adventures or mis-adventures, whichever happens first...

We're already aware which has happened first. I admire your ambition, though. Let us know when you load the module and get it working.
