Matt,
Here is ALL the info now...
Per Greg's earlier message I changed the pccard_mem="DEFAULT" to 0xd8000
and now it at least beeps when it initializes the pccard (thanks
Greg!) but it still is not working. Here is what I get on boot:
Jan 10 23:47:22 groovy pccard[95]: card "Instant Wireless "( "Network PC
CARD") [Version 01.02] [] matched "Instant Wireless " ("Network PC
CARD") [(null)] [(null)]
wi0:<WaveLAN/IEEE 802.11> at port 0x240-0x27f irq 3 slot 1 on pccard1
wi0:Ethernet Address: 00:d9:d6:c0:00:34
wi0:tx buffer allocation failed
Jun 10 23:47:27 groovy pccard[95]: wi0: Instant Wireless (Networking PC
CARD) inserted
Jun 10 23:47:28 groovy pccard[95]: pccard started
And here is the error that wicontrol gives me:
groovy: wicontrol
wicontrol: SIOCGWAVELAN: Invalid Arguement
Thanks for all the help so far....we are getting closer!
Oh, and BTW Greg, I do have an internal MiniPCI Modem/NIC combo card. Good
guess!

Yes, as you can see it is finding the card thru the dewscription in
pccard.conf that I modified from the Lucent entry.

Yes, it is a dual boot machine witrh Win2k. The Linksys is on IRQ 10 in
Win2k, but it does not give a memory address... I will try IRQ 10 instead
of 3 when I reboot.

See above...and yes, I am root (toor actually) when I run wicontrol.
