[Wirelessdriver-support] CompactFlash/PCMCIA not mounted under 5.1?

[Michael B. <mb...@zo...>]

Hi all,
A while back I mentioned an incidental problem with the 5.1 driver to 
which I don't think anyone has responded.  I bring it up again since it 
may have gone unnoticed as it was at the bottom of an email with a 
separate subject line:

Ever since updating to the 5.1 driver on my PBG3 Lombard -- when I 
mount my Compact Flash card from my digital camera (through a PCMCIA 
card adapter) the wireless driver seems to take over and assumes that 
the device is my PCMCIA Orinoco card: the menubar icon shows up, and 
the flash card no longer mounts onto the desktop like it 'should' and I 
cant gracefully eject the card.

Is this a limitation of the new wireless driver (version 4 seemed to 
leave my camera card alone) or maybe I've misconfigured something? Once 
5.1 came out I thought I needed it for functionality with Jaguar, but 
others seem to have success with the instructions for modifying version 
4, which I think I have saved somewhere. Maybe I could go back to 
version 4 under OS 10.2?

(The OS X built-in photo-download-utility-thingy does come up asking if 
I want to download pictures, but this only allows crude manipulation of 
ALL pictures, and I like to be able to scan through them first as on a 
separately mounted drive. Plus there's the problem of not being able to 
properly unmount and eject the compact flash/PCMCIA card...)

Any suggestions?

As always, thanks to the developers and list members who generously
