PCMCIA (was Re: [plug] airsnort)

[Adam Hewitt]

ok well I realised that it was the /etc/default/pcmcia that was asking
for i82365 so I modified that to i82092 and that seemed to work, however
it is now giving me the following error:


wolverine:~# /etc/init.d/pcmcia start
Starting PCMCIA services:
/lib/modules/2.4.22-ben2/kernel/drivers/pcmcia/ds.o: init_module:
Operation not permitted
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters,

      You may find more information in syslog or the output from dmesg

/lib/modules/2.4.22-ben2/pcmcia/ds.o: insmod
/lib/modules/2.4.22-ben2/pcmcia/ds.o failed
/lib/modules/2.4.22-ben2/pcmcia/ds.o: insmod ds failed

How can that not be permitted when I am doing it as root? The
permissions are the same as the i82092 module which loads fine.

Cheers for your help guys, its really driving me nuts...
