Yes, this was the setting I was thinking of.  At one stage a couple of years
ago I needed to set it to "PCIC Compatible" to recognise my 16-bit card,
since "Auto-Selected" didn't work.  

If it doesn't help then the problem must be elsewhere.

Oops, I forgot to forward Nilton's output to debian-laptop. I'll summarise
here:

===========================

Looks fine so far.  The card is identified as Xircom, tulip_cb is loaded.


lspci (after inserting card):
===================
pcilib: Cannot open /proc/bus/pci/15/00.0 
lspci: Unable to read 64 bytes of configuration space. 
===================

This looks like a problem (lspci was fine in Nilton's output before
inserting the card).  Can anyone say why lspci might break like this?


rc.pcmcia:
==============
...
# Source PCMCIA configuration, if available 
if [ -f /etc/pcmcia.conf ] ; then 
    . /etc/pcmcia.conf 
elif [ -f /etc/sysconfig/pcmcia ] ; then 
    . /etc/sysconfig/pcmcia 
    if [ "$PCMCIA" != "yes" ] ; then exit 0 ; fi 
else 
    # Should be either i82365 or tcic.  The "probe" option is a Slackware 
    # addition which tries loading both modules; usually one or the other 
    # will load if a PCMCIA subsystem is present.  Of course, the correct 
    # thing to do is to pick i82365 or tcic manually. 
#    PCIC=i82365 
#    PCIC=tcic
    # If you compiled your own pcmcia modules using the kernel sources 
    # rather than the pcmcia-cs sources, then you might need to use 
    # yenta_socket instead of i82365.  See /usr/doc/pcmcia-cs/README-2.4 
    # more information. 
#    PCIC=yenta_socket 
    PCIC=probe 
========================

I'm wondering if this might not be a problem.  Debian does not have
PCIC=probe.  

Nilton, try PCIC=yenta_socket and see if it helps.

Your english is fine :)
