[I managed to get my hands on a 3C589D for the initial install, so my original unrecognized Linksys problem is now taken care of, and I'm running 2.2-971204-SNAP on my IBM 380. I'll post my pccard.conf entry for this card (which has a different CIS tuple than any I've seen anywhere) shortly.] Does pulling 2.2-97MMDD-SNAP get one the latest and greatest PCMCIA support that I see so much traffic on this list about? Or is it necessary to explicitly cvsup RELENG_2_2, in addition? If the cvsup is necessary, I'm a bit confused, as I thought that the SNAPs were by definition the latest RELENG_2_2 build. (This question, too, went by in November, but I saw no answer posted.) Clarifications appreciated! -Brad, karp@eecs.harvard.edu
