PCMCIA cardbus card, Cirrus CL-PD6729 and i82365 module



I can not get linux to detect my PCMCIA ethernet card.

I have a Fujitsu Lifebook 420D laptop and the PCMCIA controller is a
Cirrus CL-PD6729. The PCMCIA card is a 3Com Megahertz 3CXFE575CT, it is a
cardbus card and not an ISA card. Is this specific card and this specific
controller conflicting?

I done some googling and found that the it might be the i82365 module that
is reason for it not working. And I found that instead of the i82365
module, i should try the yenta_socket module, so that it might work, is
the yenta module compatable with my controller?

I don't know if this is important but when I try to modprobe 3c59x i get:
/lib/modules/2.4.18-bf24/kernel/drivers/net/3c59x.o: init_module: No such
device
Hint: insmod errors can be casued by incorrect module parameters,
including invalid IO or IRQ parameters
/lib/modules/2.4.18-bf24/kernel/drivers/net/3c59x.o: insmod
/lib/modules/2.4.18-bf24/kernel/drivers/net/3c59x.o failed
/lib/modules/2.4.18-bf24/kernel/drivers/net/3c59x.o: insmod 3c59x failed

I am going to download pcmcia-cs 3.2.7 and see if that might work.

Am I on the right track or am i totally off? Any help would be
appreciated.
