Now pccardd sets up the card and calls the ed driver to initialize. Unfortunately, at this point, the system hangs (seting a breakpoint at edinit shows the call occuring). My next step will be to remote-gdb the kernel... or I could just get a big hammer and smash this cruddy ethernet card into pieces. I should have known $100 for a PCMCIA ethernet card last xmas was too good to be true. :-) I'm thinking of going out and getting one of the 3COM 3c589 cards and a Megahertz 3811 cellular modem, but the combo is /not/ cheap. I noticed that Fry's is selling IBM's old 14.4k modem+Ethernet cards for $69. I'm going to yell at the manufacturer of my ethernet card, as I noticed even they needed a special driver under w95 for this card. Maybe they'll cough up some dirt on how it differs. Paul
