PCMCIA Abocom Card trouble



hello :)

trying to get an Abocom FE-2500-MX working
specs: http://www.w-linx.com.tw/products/pcmcia/cardbus.htm

tuxmobil says they are supported:
http://tuxmobil.org/pcmcia_ci10333.html

running debian woody pcmcia-cs version  3.1.33-6woody1
loads without any trouble an d-link 650 wlan card,
but i have no success with aboves card.

# cardctl status
Socket 0:
  3.3V CardBus card
  function 0: [ready]

# cardctl ident
Socket 0:
  product info: "CardBus", "Fast Ethernet", "V1.0", ""
  manfid: 0x13d1, 0xab02
  function: 6 (network)

# lspci -v -s 2:
02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Abocom Systems Inc: Unknown device ab08 (rev
11)
        Subsystem: Abocom Systems Inc: Unknown device ab08
	Flags: medium devsel, IRQ 11

syslog when putting the card in:
Jul 29 16:09:31 sputnik cardmgr[1296]: socket 0: CardBus hotplug device
Jul 29 16:09:31 sputnik /etc/hotplug/pci.agent: ... no modules for PCI
slot 02:00.0
and out:
Jul 29 16:09:24 sputnik /etc/hotplug/pci.agent: PCI remove event not
supported

    
i've tried to add to /etc/pcmcia/config.opt
card "Abocom FE-2500-MX"
#   version "CardBus", "Fast Ethernet", "V1.0", ""
  manfid: 0x13d1, 0xab02
    bind "xircom_tulip_cb"
 
"I have this listed as an ADMtek chip in a card manufactured Abocom."
