The external slots are on the second controller. You need to: cd /dev/; ./MAKEDEV card2 card3 and restart pccardd. > Do I need to configure multiple controllers in the kernel?

The stock PCCARD config already has two pcic's configured, so you shouldn't need to change it if you've cloned PCCARD. > Docking issues: Don't have a dock, so I don't know for sure. I'd just go ahead and add pcic2 and pcic3 to your kernel and then ./MAKEDEV for /dev/cards4-7. > PAO issues: I'm no help here [big snip] > # PCCARD (PCMCIA) support > # NOTE - I don't know what the correct config is here.

We've used my LinSys EC2T in the machine successfully. We'll be using a 3c589D with it as soon as we get one from Frys that they haven't re-shrinkwrapped without the dongle (grrrr!). Gorgous display - very nice machine!
