First thanx everyone for the advice on Compaq 410C - the installation was a small wibble because of the following reasons. There are two PCMCIA ports on a compaq 410C but it looks like the kernel only sees the first one (which is the bottom one). So here was silly me trying all these different ethernet cards and none of them been visable to the kernel. The fix was to put it in the bottom one :) Once the kernel found the ibm card it was simple from there. Couple of hacks to config files in /etc/XF86Config for X, psm support for the kernel (although i have the wrong resolution still set but a couple more hacks will do the trick :) ). The only big problem i have is getting the PCMCIA modem working, the kernel sees the Miracom WorldPort PCMCIA as a Intel Internal 2400 baud modem. And i am unable to tip to it from any device ? Any clues ? Thanx in advance Tony -- Little Tony........ [4mSystems Administrator[0m ([1mPA[0m Data Design)
