Comment 12 for bug 52510

Ok,

I managed (sorry for the delay, I run very short of time) to boot a 7.04 live CD. Out of the box the card does not function, because the necessary .cis file (3CXEM556.cis) is not in /lib/firmware. I copied this file from the old pcmcia package (they where in /etc/pcmcia/cis/ directory) and then all worked ok.

So: the good thing is that the Feisty kernel is ok. The bad ones is that somehow the .cis files that where in the obsolete pcmcia package, and that are needed, wheren't packaged in Feisty.

So now I do not know to whom pass the ball. I think that the .cis files should be added to the pcmciautils package, no? There is a possibility to "add" the pcmciautils package to this bug?
