But Larry, the card is a CF and its coming off the PCMCIA (Not CARDBUS),
here's my pccardctl info on it:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# pccardctl info
PRODID_1="Broadcom"
PRODID_2="802.11g SC CF"
PRODID_3="4.0"

PRODID_1=""
PRODID_2=""
PRODID_3=""
PRODID_4=""
MANFID=0000,0000
FUNCID=255
Since I was confused about the version, I also verified the version: It's:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# uname -a
Linux ubuntu 2.6.25.9 #3 SMP Sat Aug 16 08:51:11 EDT 2008 i686 GNU/Linux
I also confirmed that the compat-wireless dated 06-21 works - I just
have to do a ifconfig wlan0 up command to get it associated.
Thanks much
Tex
