my wife has the same model and I upgraded it today to woody (OK, I made a backup of everything and deleted slink first ;-). With slink the Xircom CD3-10/100 network card worked, and with woody I have no problems. Maybe it is your nic which has problems. > I really do not want to have to run Windows on this machine, so any help > would be appreciated. > > I am including below the contents of /proc/pci and the last few messages in > dmesg. > > # cat /proc/pci > PCI devices found: > Bus 0, device 0, function 0: > Host bridge: Compaq Computer Corporation NorthStar CPU to PCI Bridge (rev 1). > Master Capable.

But I see you have PCI bus 1 on which the NIC is. Do you have a docking station?

Oh and it is a combo card. Maybe you should edit /etc/pcmcia/config.opts to include the high ports (they worked with slink) and exclude irq 3. If it doesn't help, send the output of lspci -v and cardctl config 0, cardctl ident 0 KH -- // In a world without walls and fences who needs Windows and Gates ? // -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
