Hi,
it is possible that the problem on boot is that the 'pcmcia' service is
not started before the 'network' service since you have a CardBUS
(32-bit PCMCIA) wireless card.
You could remove the workaround you have inserted into the
'/etc/rc.local' file and use the following instructions to change the
starting order of your services :
Please take a look at both the '/etc/init.d/network' and the
'/etc/init.d/pcmcia' files. In each file, you should see a line like this :
---
# chkconfig <run level number> <start prio number> <kill prio number>
---
Then, please edit the '/etc/init.d/pcmcia' file and change the <start
prio number> to the <start prio number> found in the
'/etc/init.d/network' file minus one. You will also have to change the
<kill prio number> which can be calculated with this simple formula :
<kill prio number> = 100 - <start prio number>
After the modifications have been made to the '/etc/init.d/pcmcia' file,
please run the following command in a root shell :
---
chkconfig pcmcia reset
---
For the possible conflict between DriverLoader and your sound driver,
please send at support at linuxant.com the output of 'dumpdiag'. You should
generate the dump while the wireless card is attached to your machine.
To generate the dump, type the following command in a root shell:
---
dldrconfig --dumpdiag
---
Just send us the generated file located in /tmp
('driverloaderdiag.txt'). It'll help us solve the problem.

Jonathan
