4. Usage and features
4.1 Tools for configuring and monitoring PCMCIA devices
If the modules are all loaded correctly, the output of the lsmod
command should look like the following, when no cards are ....
The cardmgr configuration daemon
The cardmgr daemon is responsible for monitoring PCMCIA sockets,
loading client drivers when needed, and running user-level scripts in response
to ....
The socket status file, stab
Cardmgr records device information for each socket in /var/lib/pcmcia/stab.
Here is a sample stab listing: ...
4.2 Overview of the PCMCIA configuration scripts
Each PCMCIA device has an associated ``class'' that describes how it should
be configured and managed. Classes are associated with device .............
4.3 PCMCIA network adapters
Linux ethernet-type network interfaces normally have names like eth0,
eth1, and so on. Token-ring adapters are handled similarly, however
they are named tr0, tr1, and so on. The ifconfig
command is ...............
Network device parameters
The following parameters can be defined in network.opts: ......
Comments about specific cards
- With IBM CCAE and Socket EA cards, the transceiver type (10base2, 10baseT,
AUI) needs to be set when the network device is configured. Make sure that
.........
Diagnosing problems with network adapters
- In 3.1.15 and later PCMCIA releases, the
test_network script
in the debug-tools subdirectory of the PCMCIA source tree will
spot ......
