There's a Linux PCMCIA Web page (http://hyper.stanford.edu/HyperNews/get/pcmcia/home.html) that has a list of supported cards (file SUPPORTED.CARDS, it is also contained in the pcmcia package). According to this list, there are only 2 supported Fast Ethernet cards at the moment: - Linksys EtherFast 10/100 - Xircom CreditCard CE3 and there's no work on 3c575 so far. You should have v2.9.12 of the pcmcia package if you want to use the xircom. I had lots of problems before. Even now it is not very fast compared to the Intel EtherExpress Pro 100B I use in the desktops. But the xircom is the only choice for Linux and OS/2 users. Hint for german users: Falls jemand einen Großhändler braucht, bei dem man die Xircom bekommt, bitte per EMail anfragen. Falls jemand einen Händler braucht, bei dem man die Xircom bekommt, am besten mich fragen. :-) --- kind regards, Rainer Feuerstein
