I have a 3CCFE575CT, kernel 2.4.22, Debian unstable, working fine. I got rid of the pcmcia-cs package and am using the kernel hotplug facilities along with the hotplug package. IIRC, I had trouble using pcmcia-cs with the 2.4 kernel. I have the following in my kernel config: CONFIG_HOTPLUG=y CONFIG_PCMCIA=y CONFIG_CARDBUS=y CONFIG_NET_VENDOR_3COM=y CONFIG_VORTEX=m HTH > This was originally working on an old RH (7.0 or 7.2), but Debian 3.0 > stable (2.2.19pre17) gave "Tx Ring full" errors.
