Another Q (on topic this time ... )
Do people have good suggestions for 100BaseT PCMCIA ethernet adapter cards (wired, not wireless) that work well on Linux (and, hopefully these days, don't cost much)?
Hello Ted,
I am pretty sure I have a xircom realport card (Modem and Network combo) kicking about in the office somewhere, as far as I know these work fine in Linux.
If I can find it, I am happy to pop it in a jiffy bag so that you can try it out....if it works we can discuss some sort of re-numeration for it.
If not I have just put a batch of 15 3 com megahertz cards on Ebay on a no reserve auction....they also should work fine.

PS.
The Xircom fills both PCMCIA slots, but has the advantage that it doesn't require any dongles, leads plug straight in.
