[NBLUG/talk] kernel modules.

[Steve Johnson]

That was the exact problem I had, so What I did was wrote a
little shell script that unloaded the modules, stopped pcmcia support,
then restarted it, and let cardmgr re-load the modules for the
wireless card.. then I ifup eth1 (eth0 is my ethernet card)

That fixes it, I put the script in the rc.local script (S99local) and all
is happy, its a kludge fix, but it works, and got me up and running.
