Hi All, I had to reinstall Xandros after the laptop was returned from a repair and I'm having a nightmare getting the wireless back. This model doesn't have inbuilt so I'm using the PCMCIA (Cardbus) slot. Here's what I have so far: Fix mouse (since it won't work natively and the BIOS doesn't have an option to disable Legacy USB) Boot laptop in Expert Mode enter root password at prompt cd /etc/init.d vi kdm add the line - rmmod psmouse && modprobe psmouse towards the beginning. Exit from vi ( :w then :q) 'Exit' to continue boot process The mouse will be started before every graphical session. This works fine. Fix cardbus As root: cd /etc/pcmcia vi config.opts add the lines include port 0x3000-0x7fff, memory 0xe8100000-0xe97fffff :w and :q to exit cd /etc/init/d vi cardbus [to make a new file] enter the lines - setpci -s 0:a.0 SUBORDINATE_BUS=0A cardctl eject cardctl insert ` into the new file save and exit with :w and :q chmod the new file with chmod 755 cardbus make a symlink to the new file with: cd /etc/rc5.d ln -s /etc/init.d/cardbus /etc/rc5.d/S20pcmcia-cardbus Rebooted. Now according to what I know, the cardbus card should now show up in lspci, but it doesn't. Have I missed a step somewhere?
