Hi all,
I have a weird problem. I am attempting to get a PCI wireless card working in 
an older machine (Compaq Deskpro 4000, sub-desktop with 1 shared PCI/ISA slot).

The wireless card is simply not seen/detected by the system, it fails to show 
up in 'lspci'. I am confident that the card functions (does in another machine) 
and the slot functions for another card.

I am stumped, so any comments would be welcome.
Simon.

Socket on non-working PC is keyed for 5V. Ethernet card is keyed for 5v only. 
Wireless card is keyed 5v/3v. Socket on working machine is also keyed 5v.
