It sounds like for a number of people it's working just
fine, and no one's put forward any real magic to make
it work, except for using the other slot on some machines.
So that brings up the question, why is it working on
some machines, and some slots, and not others.  To
me that seems to point to the PCMCIA code, but then
aux/pcmcia picks it up.  I expect I'll try to move
forward by adding some debug output to try and trace
what's happening and what's not.  But if anyone
has any great PCMCIA wisdom, feel free to speak
up :-)  Along those lines, if a CardBus controller
is not recognized by devpccard, should I expect
dev82365 to handle it correctly?

And I too have had trouble with the connectors on
the 3com cards.  This one will end up in a rack,
so I figure it's a good place for a pigtail that
can't take too much stress.

Thanks,
BLS
