So I am stuck on this one. I have card services compiled in my kernel. I have a PCMCIA services installed. I have an orinoco silver wireless card. I have the wireless drivers installed "net-wireless/orinoco" but am not unable to even get the card to power up. Here is the info I have from the logs and dmesg. Any ideas??

Jun 7 21:04:08 carcomp cardmgr[6342]: socket 0: Lucent Technologies WaveLAN/IEEE Adapter
Jun 7 21:04:08 carcomp cardmgr[6342]: executing: 'modprobe orinoco_cs'
Jun 7 21:04:08 carcomp cardmgr[6342]: + FATAL: Module orinoco_cs not found.
Jun 7 21:04:08 carcomp cardmgr[6342]: modprobe exited with status 1

I had the same problem whenever I used the nano editor, not only while trying to edit make.conf. I also tried using the vim, pico, ee, etc. editors, but without luck. Have you made any progress?

You most likely don't have the pcmcia use flag that's needed to build the correct module (by default it build the module for a PCI card). It's not a power problem, it's just that the driver is not found, and the PCMCIA layer likely won't apply power to a card without a driver.

What is the link between nano and PCMCIA ? :roll:

Yeah, sorry. There wasn't really a link. Someone mentioned that it was a problem with editing make.conf, and I was just amending that it was a problem whever I used nano. Thanks for the suggestion, though. I'm not home, so I'll try it soon.
