When configuring pcmcia-cs 3.2.6 against my 2.6.0-test11 I get this message:

Code:

Configuration successful.

** Your kernel is configured with PCMCIA driver support.  Therefore,
** 'make all' will compile the PCMCIA utilities but not the drivers.
** See README-2.4 if this is not what you intended!


But I want the pcmcia-cs drivers (for a serial card). I don't have any drivers for pcmcia cards enable (at least I can't find any enabled).

Any ideas?

I honestly cant remember which version you need (quantitativly) however it will not compile right if you are not useing the masked version of pcmcia-cs.

ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge pcmcia-cs

After hours, dozens of permentations on kernel configurations, kernel compiles, and kernel installs I have come to the conclusions that :

1 - pcmcia-cs DRIVERS will NOT compile against 2.6.0-test11 (only the scripts and tools will)

2 - my pcmcia compact flash adapter (SanDisk Compact Flash PC Card Adapter) will not work with 2.6.0-test11 (works fine under 2.4.22-23 with pcmcia-cs)

3 - I'm screwed until this problem gets fixed or worked out

I manged to get the same PCMCIA compact flash adapter to work fine with 2.6.0-test11. I installed the 3.2.6 pcmcia-cs package from sources.
I have a 512MB cf card in there and I can mount it from /dev/hde1 using "msdos" as the filesystem.

Are you sure you have all the modules loaded (pcmcia_core, yenta_socket, ide_cs and ds)?

Ok, I'm an idiot. I did not enable "PCMCIA IDE support" in my kernel, once I did that I was able to mount and read my compact flash through my pcmcia to conpact flash adapter.
