You might have the same card I do: pong:~# cardctl ident Socket 0: no product info available Socket 1: product info: "CardBus", "Fast Ethernet", "V1.0", "" manfid: 0x13d1, 0xab02 function: 6 (network) PCI id: 0x17b3, 0xab08 Physically, the card has an integrated dongle, sticks out about 1" on the side, a black plastic in cover. On the top, it says "HAWKING" in blue letters (the H and G are slightly larger then the rest), with "TECHNOLOGY" in smaller orange letters underneath. To the left of both those words is an orange outline of a hawk's head. Holding the card so that we can the word "Hawking", on the left side of the dongle are three very flat rectangular lights - from top to bottom, they are labeled "Power", "Wake", and "Full". On the right side of the card are three similiar lights, labeled "10", "100", and "ACT". The front of the card has a white label, with a strange looking image, and the following centered words underneath: "CardBus 10/100 [newline] Fast Ethernet PC Card" and below that the same "HAWKING" logo that is on the black plastic part. The back of the card also has a white lable with the words "Fast Ethernet [Newline] CardBus 10/100 (where "10/100" is white text in a black square), then a black line, and the text "This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules..." Finally, the back of the card has the FCC ID of "MQ4C2K5MX", followed by what looks to be the MAC address and a serial number. At the bottom is a few cryptic logos and the words "Made in Taiwan". If this seems to be your card, then under the 2.4 debian kernel, I have got the card to work, but only using the 2.4 boot floppy kernel and the package pcmcia-modules-2.4.18-bf2.4. The driver seems to be 'tulip_cb', the regular 'tulip' driver in the kernel does not seem to work. If this is your card, and you need any more help, just reply to debian-user. ~ Jesse Meyer -- icq: 34583382 / msn: dasunt@hotmail.com / yim: tsunad "We are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful about what we pretend to be." - Kurt Vonnegut Jr : Mother Night
