Slacko 5.3.3 doesn't see PCMCIA card in Toshiba laptop
Hi all,
I successfully installed Slacko 5.3.3 on a Toshiba Satellite but it don't recognized the pcmcia card, and I already autoprobed all modules.
Any hint?
Thanks in advance, Elias

Elias, if it helps I have a Portege 3480CT with PCMCIA issues, initially. Fluppy13, Saluki19, TeenPup2010, MacPup520 and other pupplets all detect the usb2 ports, wirFi cards and external CD ROM cards fine. Haven't tried Slacko, but sometimes a loose contact or a mis-aligned card in its slot could give me a false negative for pcmcia.

This card was working normally until few days ago with win98. I already tried wary puppy and arcade puppy but none of these you mentioned.

Do you mean that it STOPPED working in Win98?Elias wrote:This card was working normally until few days ago with win98.
Type the command

The card was working fine in win98 until I installed Slacko. And this is the output of the 'lspci -nn':

Would be reasonable to expect that this bug will be fixed in a new release of Slacko?rcrsn51 wrote:This would appear to be the key message. Hopefully, someone with more PCMCIA experience than me will know what to do with it.16.143392] Loading kernel module for a network device with CAP_SYS_MODULE (deprecated). Use CAP_NET_ADMIN and alias netdev-eth0 instead
Thanks, Elias
You might have better luck trying an OLDER version, like Puppy 431.
I just finished trying it...and nothing.rcrsn51 wrote:You might have better luck trying an OLDER version, like Puppy 431.
I give up.
Thank you very much,

- and in Elias' case, this device is "Toshiba ToPIC95".
To identify the Cardbus devices connected to the controller, you must follow the procedure I explained way back in 2006 -
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 1707#31707
Here it is again:
- Check if the PCMCIA system recognises your PCMCIA device with these 2 commands -
Code: Select all
pccardctl status
pccardctl ident
Code: Select all
pccardctl eject
pccardctl insert
If still no success, it's possible that Puppy failed to detect the Toshiba PCMCIA interface at boot up, and failed to initialise the PCMCIA subsystem (pcmciautils)
As a short term fix, run this command -
Code: Select all
pcmcia-socket-startup
If this last step (running the "pcmcia-socket-startup" command) was successful, you can make this fix permanent by following forum member tubby's instructions to modify Puppy's start up script -

The device is listed - it's a Planet ENW-3502-2T - but the Network Wizard cannot see any active network interface even after running 'pcmcia-socket-startup'.
obs. I'm using slacko 5.3.3.
