No, ttuuxxx's latest 2.14 is based on kernel 2.6.
This is not kernel 2.4.

And here are some older puppylinux version using kernel 2.4: puppy-1...iso

My bios is from SystemSoft version 1.01.25. "cardbus cards are not supported" This is very often documented in the internet. The question is, whether I could flash the BIOS to version 1.38? Maybe it would work using command cardmgr. BUT: cardmgr (part of pcmcia-cs) is deprecated and only u...

I've found another very interesting linux distribution.
It's a firewall distribution and called ipcop.
You can find it there.

And I've found this special ipcop-forum.
And this special pcmcia-topic.

The pcmcia-socket-startup command is included in the pcmciautils package. The last version is pcmciautils-017.tar.gz This Pcmcia-HOWTO explains how to configure this package. And there is a short describing how to compile and install pcmciautils. First you should make a backup copy of your /etc/pcmc...

It seems that NO cardbus cards are supported by puppy linux till now,
because of the special compiling of puppy linux...
Strange, isn't it?:(
Otherwise someone (e.g. Mr. tempestuous) would have answered...
Thank you.

Thank you for your reply.
Wary 500 an Wary 104?
What's the difference?
Which one is the latest version?
Is wary 500 a special version?

My general rule of thumb is that you need at least 512MB total (RAM+Swap). My 333MHz has 256MB RAM and 512MB swap.

Yes, I've installed two virtual linux swap partitions. and it works fine.
I've tried earlier puppies: no success till now ...

I've tried what you've suggested. But no success. pccardctl eject pccardctl insert pccardctl status pccardctl ident I cannot see my device listed. I restarted pcmciautils pcmcia-socket-startup The "CardBus bridge: Texas Instruments PCI1131" seems to be managed by the yenta_socket-module. B...

I'll try older puppies next days.
The computer is an old CANON BN 750

One of the pcmcia-cards needs module 8139too only
It's an ethernet cardbus card

The other one is an USB 2.0 cardbus card.
I think I don't need special modules for that.

There are more informations about my system

Thank you for your reply. I think there are two steps. 1) Loading modules for the pcmcia-cards: This should be for the one card only 8139too. So I think there's no problem. The other card might need no special module. 2) Loading modules for bridges: During booting process there is loaded this pcmcia...

Did you try Puppy Wary 500?
Did you get your pcmcia work with PuppyWary?
I'm interested in your experience using Puppy Wary 500.

Thank you for replying. The PCI1131 is a bridge between the PCI system bus and two PC Card sockets, but no guarantee the sockets are 32 bit cardbus or 16 bit pcmcia. It's a 32 bit Cardbus bridge. And it did work under freedos. See my lspci-output above: 00:04.0 CardBus bridge: Texas Instruments PCI1...

It's important to know, whether the PC Card is a Cardbus or 16-bit-Card: "CardBus PC Cards have an extra metal grounding strip on top of the cards right over the connector. 16-bit PC Cards do not have this connector." It's also important to know, whether the PC Card host computer has CardB...

No, i didn't try 4.3.1.
Perhaps I should.
Thank you for answering.

I've posted my pcmcia-problems here, but nobody answered.
So I try to get help/support here now.
Is there anyone who knows how to get these pcmcia-cards work?
