hotplug and cardbus card

[davis <davis@skink.net>]

hello

I have a weird problem with my cardbus nic.  When I insert the card the first time, it will not ifconfig the interface to have an ip.  ifconfig -a will show the interface though.  When I eject the nic card and reinsert it, it will now ifconfig up.  Here are my settings:

-/etc/network/interfaces--

auto lo eth0 eth1

iface lo inet loopback

iface eth0 inet static
    address 192.168.1.1
    netmask 255.255.255.0

mapping hotplug
    script echo

iface eth1 inet static
    address 192.168.0.1
    netmask 255.255.255.0



eth0 is the builtin nic and it works ok.  eth1 is the cardbus nic.
