As I mentioned in a previous posting, a colleague of mine -- an academic journal editor -- running EL 5 on her laptop needs to control a remote Mac OS X machine via LogMeIn. I have since verified that the LogMeIn application works. However, it turns out that she will need a much larger monitor capable of at least 1960 x 1240 resolution (values from her) that the journal will supply. Her laptop does not support this high a resolution, nor does she have the (personal) funds to get a new laptop. I have found a PCMCIA card that seems to provide the needed functionality (please see below).

Does anyone have experience with this unit? There seems to be a Linux driver available (http://www.villagetronic.com/ftp/vtbook/Linux/VTBookLinuxDriver_1.1.tgz).

Any information would be appreciated.
