Re: Xircom PCMCIA Etherent/Modem Card

["Timothy H. Keitt" <Timothy.Keitt@SUNYSB.Edu>]

Yes.  I have one.  Driver support is not reliable in potato.  If you 
fiddle with bringing up and down interfaces and restarting pcmcia, you 
can occasionally get it to work.  The documentation says that support 
for this card is experimental.  From what I hear, the card will be much 
better supported in the next major release of the pcmcia drivers.

Cheers,
Tim
