where can I get the changes of PCMCIA between kernel 2.4 and 2.6?

[mail mail]

Hi,
I have searched the website http://linux.bkbits.com/, but I can't find
what has been changed in "unregister_pccard_driver",
"register_pccard_driver". What is the substitution for these two
functions in kernel 2.6?

Another question is that "Warning: "CardServices"
[/root/lt4000-1.0.0.2/kernel/LT4000_cs.ko] undefined! . The file I can
compile in kernel 2.4 can't be compiled in kernel 2.6.

make -C /lib/modules/2.6.11-1.14-FC3/build M=/root/lt4000-1.0.0.2/kernel

Thanks in advance.
