Hi Willie, Are you sure they will really work? Are the wifi cards "PCMCIA" or "Cardbus"? I don't think Cardbus can actually translate to ISA? Or is your "ISA/PCMCIA" adaptor really a "PCI/Cardbus" one and this really should work? Does dmesg show anything after a "PCMCIA" card is inserted? Is hotplug running? Does "lspci" show your PCMCIA (cardbus?) bridge? Do you have the "pcmcia-cs" package installed? If you can answer these questions it will give us all a good start on finding some more questions to ask you... :-) Regards, Andrew McMillan. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Andrew @ Catalyst .Net .NZ Ltd, PO Box 11-053, Manners St, Wellington WEB: http://catalyst.net.nz/ PHYS: Level 2, 150-154 Willis St DDI: +64(4)803-2201 MOB: +64(272)DEBIAN OFFICE: +64(4)499-2267 Would that my hand were as swift as my tongue. -- Alfieri -------------------------------------------------------------------------
