Viewing The Event Log - IBM ThinkPad 310E User Manual

Viewing the Event Log

If you are trying to use a function for which the required driver has
not registered with the Card Services, you need to install the client
driver provided by the PC Card vendor that is included with the PC
Card in order to add the necessary driver to your CONFIG.SYS file.
Clicking on the Event Log button in the CardAgent main window
opens the Event Log Viewer window. The Event Log contains
information about all events related to the PC Card slots in your
computer including card insertions/extractions, card configuration
success/failures, card event-action associations, and programs
launched. The information in the Event Log is listed in chronological
order, with each message identified by a three-letter acronym to
indicate its origin as follows:
•
AGT - CardAgent
•
EPD - Event Processor Daemon
•
STP - PCMSetup
•
EPS - Install Program
You can customize the Event Log to specify the type of information
displayed. Card Agent saves the Event Log as a text file,
PCM.LOG, in the directory into which you installed CardAgent. You
can use the Event Log (or review, print out PCM.LOG) to assist you
in diagnosing problems that you may experience with your PC cards.
When you have finished reviewing the Event Log, click on OK to
return to the CardAgent main window.
