Mine does the same, but it still works. If yours is non-functional, it's probably for another reason.

The "ds" module is in the kernel, it would only be made if you built PCMCIA as a module.

I found a solution to this yesterday.

If you compile the following 2 items as modules in the kernel:

Code:

<M> PCMCIA/CardBus support
<M>   CardBus yenta-compatible bridge support


and make sure you have the following entry in /etc/conf.d/pcmcia

Code:
PCIC="yenta_socket"


then this error should no longer appear while booting.

I also had to modprobe yenta_socket before pcmcia-cs or cardctl was able to even find an open socket. Even though when I emerged pcmcia-cs, the messages said to disable support for pcmcia in the kernel, you may have to insert a few modules before it recognizes your card.

Ah! Yes, it seems that it's not on by default. Weel, I enabled it, making it right now. Thanks for the tips, guys!

this message displayed while emerging pcmcia-cs applies to the 2.4 kernels. when you emerge pcmcia-cs with a 2.6 kernel the drivers don't get build only the utils.
