[TriLUG] Kernel 2.4/PCMCIA question

[Bill Vinson]

I know this is going to sound stupid, but I have never rebuilt a kernel 
on a laptop before.  I am trying to do this on my P120 Fujitsu Lifebook 
as I am thinking about putting a PCMCIA Wireless card in it.  Haven't 
decided yet, but I have nothing better to do :)

But, here is the question.  I do not want to use 2.4's PCMCIA parts.  I 
want to use the seperate PCMCIA tools.  Debian makes this very easy as 
far as compilation.  However, when configuring the kernel do I leave 
PCMCIA support on or off?  Didn't know if the external tools needed it 
to be turned off in the kernel?

Thanks,
Bill Vinson
