First do 'man interfaces' and then add the following line to the
/etc/network/interfaces file:
iface eth0 inet dhcp
Be sure *not* to add a line that says 'auto eth0' since this is a
PCMCIA device.
Now do 'ifup eth0' and your card should come up with dhcp. If it does
not tell us what you see in the syslog etc.
The next time you boot up cardmgr should detect your card on boot or
at insertion and bring it up with dhcp.
Okay, I may have missed something. But most PCMCIA devices (I don't
own cardbus devices) work like this. I'm not sure what the level of
cardbus support is in cardmgr.....try it and see.
Cheers!
