i have installed DSL 2.4 on an old compaq preasrio 1600,
with only 53MB of ram.

i am trying to get to work an old SMC2635w wireless PCMCIA card,
but i have a great of trouble making it happen.

i tried ndiswrapper with the drivers that i dowload from the manufactuerer's website...

after i execture "modprobe ndiswrapper" i get the following line from dmesg

ndiswrapper version 1.14 loaded (preempt=np, smp=yes)
ndiswrapper: driver net2635w (SMC Networks Inc., 09/07/2003, 1.80.907.2003) loaded
PCI: Unable to reserve I/O region #1:100@4000 for device 01:00.0
ndiswrapper (start_pdo:321): couln't request PCI regions: fffffff0

can someone please suggest how i should proceed?

thank you in advance...

lmp3,

Can you provide the following output:

- output from dmesg
- output from cat /proc/interrupts
- output from lspci -v

This will provide some information on your PCI setup and will be a good starting point to diagnose your problem. I can't promise results but am happy to help.

Regards,

Jonam
