As you can see: Nothing, unless I plug the Lucent-WLAN Card into one of the
PCMCIA-Slots. In this case, cardctl shows:
root@tty1[root]# cardctl ident
Socket 0:
  no product info available
Socket 1:
  product info: "Lucent Technologies", "WaveLAN/IEEE", "Version 01.01", ""
  manfid: 0x0156, 0x0002
  function: 6 (network)

Does this mean, the card does not work? - How can I check this out? And:
Where do I know from, which card it is?

Thanks for help! :)
