Comments/Problems:
Testinstallations for bug #248627 have shown that if a Xircom
CE3B-100BTX (module is xirc2ps_cs) PCMCIA network card is plugged in,
the network config claims that obtaining an IP via DHCP fails. However
when checking the IP address the card is properly configured and has
an IP-address.
This message does not appear with the Xircom REM56G-100 that uses the
same module.
According to bug # 244819 this issue should be solved but isn't.
Regards
Thorsten
