In the quest to get a WaveLAN card to work on my 6.2beta laptop, it appears that I've 
gone one step forward and two steps back. I've got the WaveLAN card working, but I've 
lost cardbus support (Xircom RealPort card).

Short version:

* locate WaveLAN drivers, decompress into /usr/src/linux, compile
* old 3c569b works like a charm
* new WaveLAN (amazingly!) works just fine

but:

* RealPort will dhcpcd from a NAT/dhcp device, and will acquire an IP address. It can 
ping itself. But it can't ping the NAT device, the router, or a public address. 
Pinging stops at the eth0 address.

I'm about at the point of paralysis-by-analysis, it's getting late here. But this 
really has me crazy. I'm trying to decide if I've screwed up cardbus, or just the 
RealPort module.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Did I screw up networking, or just the module 
for cardbus or the RealPort? I'm about ready to give up the WaveLAN to get the 
RealPort back (I hate dongles, as proven by the WaveLAN!), but I'm also ready to do 
what it takes to keep all three cards (speedy cardbus RealPort, rock-solid 3c389b, and 
way-cool WaveLAN).

Thanks in advance to anyone who can offer any assistance with this!

Steve B.
