508
      <para>
509
        Try to use OLDCARD implementation. Remove from kernel config file strings:
510
511
        <programlisting>
512
          device cbb
513
          device pccard
514
          device cardbus
515
        </programlisting>
516
517
        and just add:
518
519
        <programlisting>
520
          device pcic
521
          device card 1
522
        </programlisting>
523
524
      Recompile and install new kernel.

531
          No /dev/pccard[0|1] devices, exit.
532
        </screen>
533
        But kernel already detects all PC-cards devices. Whats wrong?

        You must run &man.devd.8;. Run it manually and add following
