[Trinux-talk] PCMCIA_trouble_ENW3503T

[takeshi <ta...@4d...>]

Dear Trinux users. I am Trinux beginner but use Debian on desktop-PC.

I am trying to install Trinux and making firewall on note-PC.
But, my PCMCIA ethernet card is not working with my note-PC.
Please advice me.

I did the following tests.

PC: ThinkPad 365X ( RAM=24Mbyte) and IBM external FDD unit.
I checked used IRQ and IO base address with Windows95.

Tested PCMCIA ethernet card: ( Cardmgr messages are the same.)
  PLANEX ENW-3503-T( NE2000 compatible but NIC chip is Winbond W89C926. )
  Corega EtherII PCC-T
  KANSAI ELECTRIC CO.,LTD KLA-PCM/T
  Corega FEther PCC-TXF
  
Using image: trinux-0.80rc2-pcmcia.img
Using editor :nano

Cardmgr messages(ONLY 1set of ENW-3503-T to slot0): 
 *card recognize  OK ( product info, manfid, function displayed )
 product info: "Ethernet","Adapter","2.0"
 manfid 0x0149,0xc1ab
 *Cardmgr messages are 
  "socket 0 :NE2000 compatible ethernet card",
  "modules /lib/modules/2.4.5/8390.o not available",
  "executing: 'modprobe pcnet_cs'",
  "modprobe exited with status 2",
  "get dev info on sokect 0 failed: Resource temporarily unavailable",
  "Attempting to configure network...",
  "PCMCIA modules running", and
  "eth0: error fetching interface information: Device not found ...".
 
#cat /proc/interrupts ( Trinux running )
 0:system timer 1:key board 2:cascade 6:FDD 15:i82365
 
#cat /proc/ioports ( only relation port )
 0x3c0-0x3df:VGA  0x3e0-0x3e1:i82365 0xcf9-0xcff:pci conf1
 
#cat /proc/modules
 ds 2    i82365 2    pcmcia-core 0
  
Yes, of course i tried to change IRQ, base IO address on Sysconfig.sys,
and /pcmcia-bin/etc/pcmcia/config.opts.

Do you need more information? Then i will add.

Thank you.
