Hi Willie,
Are you sure they will really work? Are the wifi cards "PCMCIA" or
"Cardbus"? I don't think Cardbus can actually translate to ISA? Or is
your "ISA/PCMCIA" adaptor really a "PCI/Cardbus" one and this really
should work?
Does dmesg show anything after a "PCMCIA" card is inserted? Is hotplug
running? Does "lspci" show your PCMCIA (cardbus?) bridge? Do you have
the "pcmcia-cs" package installed?
If you can answer these questions it will give us all a good start on
finding some more questions to ask you... :-)
Regards,
Andrew McMillan.
