Hi all,

I am having some problems getting pcmcia working on a laptop The system is
an Averatec (formerly Sotec) and has an O2Micro 6912 card controller. I
have successfully installed RedHat 8.0 and have installed kernel version
2.4.18-27.8.0. Everything seems to work fine, except that when I boot the
machine, it stops at "Starting pcmcia" for about 5 to 10 minutes. A check
of the logs shows no errors. In addition, when I insert a pcmcia card, the
system hangs for a couple of minutes, then seems fine after that. I have
tried using the standalone pcmcia drivers, in hopes that would solve my
problem, but after posting on the forum I was told by David Hinds that I
should be using yenta_socket. He suggested I post a message on this list
to see if anyone has any suggestions.

If you could please CC me on any responses, I would appreciate it. I would
subscribe to the list, but I'm afraid I would just be in over my head. :)

Thanks in advance,

Steve
