Not exactly Linux but since you have FreeBSD on a laptop maybe you can help. I can't seem to get the PCMCIA to work properly. I enables the service and the kernel sees my NIC (3c589) but says the configuration failed. It's a 56k/10bT combo card by the way. Any suggestions on what to try or where I should go for documentation about this beast?
