YNT: [driverloader] Re: Compaq 2170CA/Knoppix3.6/USR5410 PCMCIA card

[Linuxant support (Jonathan)]

Hi,

for the problem with version 4 of the driver, what is the error message 
generated in your 'dmesg' when it is not working?

For versions 5 and 6 of the driver, please make sure that your kernel 
was compiled without the CONFIG_PREEMPT option.

Regards,
