2.4.9 Linux Kernel & PCMCIA Wireless Problems
We are installing a PrismII chipset wireless PCMCIA card with a new 2.4.9 linux kernel. The card is a D-Link DWL-650. The 2.4.9 kernel uses the orinoco_cs.o driver.
Anyone running this configuration?
The 2.4.9 Linux kernel has built in PCMCIA support and the README says it supports the DWL-650, but after days of attempts and many google searches, we can't get the new kernel based PCMCIA to work. AND, when we compile the kernel without internet PCMCIA support, we can't get the old card services to work
We have notes into the developer. However, if anyone is running this configuration please reply.
In fact, if anyone is sucessfully running D-Link DWL-650 wireless services on Linux, PLEASE reply.

axnet_cs
AXNET_CS(4) Kernel Interfaces Manual AXNET_CS(4)
NAME
axnet_cs - Asix AX88190 chipset PCMCIA Ethernet Driver
SYNOPSIS
insmod axnet_cs.o [pc_debug=n] [irq_list=i,j,...]
DESCRIPTION
Axnet_cs is a driver for PCMCIA ethernet cards based on the Asix AX88190 chipset. These cards are mostly NE2000 compatible but have sev-
eral bugs that are sufficiently tricky to work around that a separate driver was deemed necessary. When this driver is bound to a card, it
allocates the next available ethernet device (eth0..eth#). This device name will be reported in the kernel log file, and passed on to
cardmgr(8).
PARAMETERS
pc_debug=n
Selects the PCMCIA debugging level. This parameter is only available if the module is compiled with debugging enabled. A non-zero
value enables debugging.
irq_list=i,j,...
Specifies the set of interrupts that may be allocated by this driver.
DIAGNOSTICS
axnet_cs: this is not an AX88190 card!
Indicates that this card is probably a normal NE2000 compatible card, which requires the pcnet_cs driver.
eth#: interrupt(s) dropped!
Indicates that the driver did not receive an interrupt notification for some reason. The driver will poll the card (with a signifi-
cant performance penalty) if the problem persists. The most likely cause is an interrupt conflict and/or host bridge configuration
problem.
