Description:
|
PCMCIA network card made by IBM, available with a dongle which permits both 10baseT and 10base2 (the "combo" part I presume). To the best of my knowledge, this card is not supported by the kernel, nor by the standard pcmcia-cs package; however, I managed to get one working beautifully by using the cs89x0_cs driver. This patch should work with kernels up to 2.2.x. For newer kernels, such as anything in the 2.4.x series, there is a patch to the driver that is necessary to get it to compile.
Also, there are a number of vital kernel options that must be enabled in order for the card to work:
ISA bus support (CONFIG_ISA)
Support for hot-pluggable devices (CONFIG_HOTPLUG)
PCMCIA/Cardbus support (CONFIG_PCMCIA)
i82365 compatible bridge support (CONFIG_I82365)
I used a 2.4.20 kernel; your mileage may vary. Omitting any one of the above will cause the card to not work, and there may be other required options as well.
