I have an interesting problem with the AT&T Wanelan Cards.
Unfortunately, the Wavelan is a very "interesting" driver. I had some problems
getting the WaveLAN to work on a Toshiba until I hardwired its irq to 11; at
that point, it worked both alone and with the IBM ethernet card I have (I have
to play with it in combination with a 3c589 as well; wish me luck).
I have also noticed, on some Thinkpads I work with, that the ethernet does not
get recognized if I insert a WaveLAN first -- that is, if I want to use both
ethernet and WaveLAN, the ethernet has to get inserted or discovered before the
WaveLAN. Maybe that is again a result of irq confusion, but it seems more like
the result of some other conflict that I have yet to track down.
Good luck!
