Hi,
I've installed and used the pcmcia-cs package on debian.
When i plug a 3com 3c589c pcmcia NIC in, then the card
is detected and started, but to get it to appear as eth0
in "ifconfig", i need to do /etc/init.d/networking restart.
Is there a standard way of making this happen automatically?

In the bios screen, there's settings for hard-disk spin-down times.
Does this mean i don't need to worry about setting hdparm?

Should "Power Management" be enabled in the bios or disabled?
