if cardmgr can't use the device, it will ignore it. So the modem part will be ignored. > Additionally, the new card isn't recognized by the PCMCIA software.

You may have to add a line for that manfid. If so, mail David Hinds (pcmcia maintainer) so he can use it from now on. > It may have something to do with the ID string my card is feeding the > PCMCIA stuff.
