I am not running redhat 9, but I am running 2.4.21-1.ll.acpi kernel. I
erased the /lib/modules/2.4.21-1.ll.acpi/pcmcia directory and still my
integrated eth1 (wireless) isn't showing up. I did a
[08:06:23][~]# modprobe -v orinoco
/sbin/insmod
/lib/modules/2.4.21-1.ll.acpi/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/hermes.o
