hi,
i have a vaio z600lek with a pc-card cdrom which was properly detected and installed in red hat 8. in red hat 9 as well as fedora 1, installation from it works only with the workaround in the release notes, and it won't work at all afterwards when running either red hat 9 or fc1. i was already over at pcmcia-cs.sourceforge.net, but they couldn't figure out why it's not working either (red hat uses some modified pcmcia-package, no?) anyways, because this might be a relevant issue for fc2 affecting all users of notebokks of the same kind, i post over here.
here's the link (i didn't try his last tip, because i don't understand what to do - as you can see from the thread, my knowledge of linux is still very limited. so pls bear with me)
http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?thread_id=855719&forum_id=7049
thx for any help.

hm, someone at redhat or some expert here _should know_ what to do - no...?!

You are asking the wrong list. Try the fedora-list.
sorry, but where's the problem?
i really wonder what's the difference between my issue and the one of the slightly older ati-thread here at this list? there it's about a hardware-detection/configuration-problem that affects other users, and i got a hardware-detection/configuration-problem that very likely affects other users also (and might need to get fixed by red hat, not me), and isn't just a problem on my part...

This list is for Fedora test releases and testing update packages. Sometimes people post off-topic questions and they get answered. Complaining because your off-topic question didn't get answered won't help. The fedora-list is for general Fedora release issues, so it is a better list for your question. It also has a different subscriber base, so someone there may have already found your answer.
