Hello all,


    Today I decided to take on the task of getting my pcmcia network adapter 
to work in my laptop.  I am trying to create a home network here with my 
desktop and laptop, both running Linux-Mandrake 7.0.  Both systems are dual 
boot and are already networked in Windows.  I have a problem though when I 
try to get my pcmcia adapter to work in Linux.  I hae been able to get the 
pcmcia stuff working alright (it was setup properly during install) But my 
card (3com) isn't being recognized correctly as far as I can tell.  The 
light on the card comes on, and it will show up when I do an 'ifconfig' as 
my 'eth0' adapter, but after I try to ping my desktop, it tells me: 'sentto: 
Network is unreachable'  Any thoughts on this?  Is there something else I 
need to do to set up my card?  Thanks in advance -

- Joe :)
