Evening to all,

Looking more for direction than an exact answer(although an exact answer
would be great), but I have gotten brave and partitioned my IBM ThinkPad
2611 and loaded RH6.2 on my second partition, so far so good.  Got X going
at 800x600(yeah) and so now on to getting my nic going.  I have a Linksys
EtherFast 10/100 PC Card, model number PCMPC100.  So i have include my
/var/log/messages below it starts off at the point where I say
/etc/rc.d/init.d/pcmcia start  then the second part is where I physically
insert the nic.  Now I guess my question is where is my problem. Do i need
to get the newest Card Services from sourceforge or do I need to update my
module to use this nic or should I just go buy another nic(open option if
any sugestions given, DLink?, i have had problems before with Linksys PCI 
cards, just gave up, returned them to Microcenter bought some DLinks and
have been happy ever since.)

part deux(sp?) of the /var/log/messages, this is where I physically insert
the card.
