    What is the error message when you try to load the pcmia modules
    (modprobe)? Or what happens when you try to load them with modconf?
    BTW, you probably should tell us what kernel you are using and the
    output of

    lspci | grep CardBus

    Sorry if you posted this info earlier.

    Add whatever sources you want to your /etc/apt/sources.list, then:

    apt-get update
    apt-get install kernel-image-<version>
    apt-get install kernel-pcmcia-modules-<version>

    Dunno, don't use RedHat. What does chkconfig do?

    Cheers,

    Nick.
