I copied over the BL3.32 kernel and pcmcia and 8390 modules and they work 
fine on this computer, and the network module loads and the card is 
assigned irq9.  It is smc91c92_cs.o, which I downloaded from Slackware 7.1

3.40 may be handling the modem card okay (I think it still gave me a 
Release does not match message but I am not sure, nor did I test if the 
modem works, but serial_cs loaded), but it appears to have difficulties 
with the network card module which you posted for 3.40: smc91c92_cs.o.

When this card is in the bottom slot:

Card Services release does not match.

Could not adjust resource:  (several lines of this with numbers)

insmod:  can't handle sections of type 1769462

insmod:  could not load the module:

Success ... modprobe not found ...

get dev info on socket 0 failed


The module 8390 did load but the smc one did not.

Did you compile the modules with the same configuration as the kernel?
In the case of framebuffer I had to recompile mdacon.o with the 
framebuffer config, because the precompiled mdacon.o from SW did not work 
with framebuffer kernel.

Anyway, I can run 3.40 with the 3.32 kernel and modules in order to use 
the network card, but this problem might occur with any modules other than 
the ones you tested personally.   We also have a memory_cs.o card (8MB)
which I will test with 3.40.
