I'll check it out. Are you willing to be a tester? I'm assigning this to mobile@ since it is an issue with pcmcia-cs more than the LiveCD. No response... Closing due to lack of feedback. |
On the Universal LiveCD the entry in /etc/pcmcia/config was commented out and "more info needed" was stated. I got it working by adding this entry: card "AmbiCom AMB8110 Fast Ethernet" version "AmbiCom,Inc.", "Fast Ethernet PC Card(AMB8110) bind "axnet_cs" Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Use Universal LiveCD to install on a laptop with an AmbiCom AMB8110 pcmcia 10/100 ethernet card 2. 3. Actual Results: could not config ethernet card until entry was added to /etc/pcmcia/config (see bug "Details") Expected Results: detect the card See "Details" for suggested solution.
