[juneau-lug] Redhat 7.3, PCMCIA and X

Hi, all!

I decided to install Redhat 7.3 instead of Slackware on my Toshiba Tecra 
700CT (P120, 48 mb ram) and Im have two remaining issues to resolve. I 
have gone on the web, but I have been unable to find a solution.

First, to save on memory, I would like to boot to a command prompt and 
avoid the overhead of a display manager, but when I login and run 
startx, I get an error about X having to be started by root and warning 
about not setting the SUID root bit. Is there a way around this?

Next, I can only get the PCMCIA card manager working after I login and 
restart it from the Redhat Services Manager. Trying to restart from a 
commandline doesn't work. During bootup, the boot messages show that the 
card manager is unable to get an interrupt. Has anyone had this problem 
and come up with a solution? I was thinking that maybe changing the 
order that the services are brought up might make a difference, but I 
don't know what file to edit.

Thanks!

Chuck Hakari
