PETEC 2MB SRAM

[Pep Talens]

Hi,

this is my scenario:

Laptop: BenQ Joybook A33E
OS: OpenSuse 10.2
Kernel: 2.6.18.8-0.13-default
PCMCIA Card: PRETEC 2MB SRAM     
http://pan8.fotovista.com/dev/8/6/03573268/l_03573268.jpg
pcmcia-cs version: 3.2.8
Socket: yenta-socket
IRQ: 169

After reading the Howto, mini-howto and some other stuff I still trying to 
figure out how to mount it and write in. Sorry if redundant but I'm a little 
lost. I can provide the output of some commands:

Monk:/opt/pcmcia-cs-3.2.8/cardmgr # 
udevinfo -a -p  /sys/bus/pcmcia/devices/0.0

Udevinfo starts with the device specified by the devpath and then
walks up the chain of parent devices. It prints for every device
found, all possible attributes in the udev rules key format.
A rule to match, can be composed by the attributes of the device
and the attributes from one single parent device.

But I guess that this card is not supported in /etc/pcmcia/config. More over, 
I can see this in /var/log/messages:

Oct 29 09:11:47 Monk cardmgr[5689]:   product info: "PRETEC", "  2MB SRAM 
CARD", "", ""

After see this, as you will guess, my config.opts is:

include port 0x100-0x3af
include port 0x3e0-0x4ff
include port 0x820-0x8ff
include port 0xc00-0xcf7

include memory 0xc0000-0xfffff
include memory 0xa0000000-0xa0ffffff
include memory 0x60000000-0x60ffffff


Now I'm trying to migrate from cardmgr to pcmciautils but I don't know if 
after migration I'll be able to make this card writable. Am I in the right 
way? Could someone guide me?

Thank you very much
