RE: IBM A Series, Mod. 26523VG
the one used in the T-20/T-21/T-22 is an intel EEpro100b chipset, which
works flawlessly with linux. FWIW. Ifyou can get your hands on a 'doze box
(check at a local retailer?) have a look in the network control panel and
see what it's listed as.

Sounds like a dual function card. I use one, also IBM, which
contains a 14.4Kbps modem (needless to say, I don't use this 'child'
anymore) and a 10Mbps ethernet child which I use all the time. Not a
big deal - I used to use this in my IBM 486 laptop which was a huge
pain to get working in Linux, but the one thing that was really 'plug
and play' was the PCMCIA card.
