I think you should find it for about �50 (maybe less). I have that card (netgear FA511) and failed to get it to work. The card costs about $60 but to get it to work would be priceless... I use woody, kernel 2.4.14 (for xfs) and the latest pcmcia-cs (from unstable) along with tulip 1.1.8. When I insert the card, I get an error message about no IRQ known for Pin A. Oddly, I get a similar error message on another machine (desktop with netgear 10/100 card), but the nic works. What configuration do you use? Does anybody know how to solve this IRQ issue (on a TP 600)? thanks! -tom -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
