Very Computer

In order that Debian 1.2 would recognize a 3C562/563 card with internal
modem in my Olivetti P100D laptop, I installed pcmcia-cs_2.9.5-3.deb
with dpkg. This installed the package without problemes, but when I
reboot there seems to be a mismatch.

Can anyone explain what happens and why ? (Card Services?, PCIC?, ...).
What about configuring the modem ? Is this done by another package ?

This is the message I get when the system boots after installing
pcmcia-cs_2.9.5-3.deb:

**************** begin message ******************************

I think the Debian project has chosen to separate the modules (drivers)
from
the control programs for PCMCIA.  I suppose there is *some* benefit to this

approach.

Anyway, you need both the programs, which I believe you have now, and the
modules (pcmcia-modules?)

Also, 1.2 is a previous release of Debian - you may want to see if 1.3 has
pcmcia 2.9.3+ in it (I think .3 was when the 562D problems were solved?)

HTH,
