how to get to internet on pcmcia card?
 
i have installed net-tools, and pcmcia-cs modules so i could get a xircom card i have to wrok (i 4get the exact name but i know it uses the xirc2ps_cs module) i run teh comand /etc/rc.d/rc.pcmcia.N start, and it loads and detects everyhting fine (givs a smal problem about some stupid no high memory avalible so i retype it in only i tell it to reload and not start and then it givs no errors, then i try to conect yo the internet usuing lynx (its the only internet thingy i got installed so far) but it says it cant conect to remote host, is there some special trick or comands i need to enter in b4 it wil work? (no networking setup comands are giving at boot time in the init scripts, the only scripts i got for netowrking are the ones installed by pcmcia-cs package)

Is it an Ethernet pcmcia card? Are you using it on a LAN? If so, you will need an IP address for it:

"ifconfig eth0 <ip> netmask <netmask>"

a default gateway,

"route add default gw <gateway ip>"

and a nameserver entry in your /etc/resolv.conf
