This may not be where to look. I'm sort of guessing as I'm not blessed
with this hardware. It's like PCMCIA I take it, but not quite. It may be
more appropriate to just probe the modules like we do for mesh, bmac, etc.
What I'm looking for is some kind of clue that the device is present, even
before I try to probe, which may save me from locking up a machine
unecessarily. Does dmesg or /proc give any indication before the
module(s) are installed?
With "normal" PCMCIA, the info corresponds with what cardctl reads:
[root@powerbook pcmcia-cs-3.1.26]# cardctl ident
Socket 0:
product info: "Ethernet", "Adapter", "2.0"
manfid: 0x0149, 0xc1ab
function: 6 (network)
Any info you can provide would help.
Thx,
Stew Benedict
