D-Link DFE 650 TX



Unhappily I am definitively convinced that PCMCIA D-Link DFE 650TX doesn't work in Linux after 3 days frustrated of countless attempts. 
 
In the file /var/log/messages observed that when I connect the net cable in PCMCIA it appears the message " lost link beat ". When I remove the cable it appears " found link beat ". That is very strange and comedian. 
 
I tried to use Suse, Conectiva and anything. Always the same mistake. I updated the packages pcmias for the last versions and anything. I used different Kernels and anything. In spite of the manufacturer it to indicate that PCMCIA is " Linux Ready " was not possible to do PCMCIA to communicate. In Windows 2000 PCMCIA works perfectly sparing any driver configuration . That is it that more it inconveniences me!! 
 
Until the own creators of the modules PCMCIA of Linux guarantee in the document of PCMCIA supported that it works. The question that more does to me it is: How did they get to do that to work?!?!  
 
I am sorry of having acquired that Hardware (at least he works in Windows). I don't recommend anybody. I didn't get to find a Compaq (it was what I used previously) it was what found. The Manufacturer of PCMCIA nor office in Brazil possess!!! 
 
Thankful
