The modem should work, provided you sacrifice the correct number of chickens whilst restarting pccardd :-) The proocedure outlined by Rogier Mulhuijzen a little further down this thread explains all. I think you'll be out of luck with the CardBus adapter though. ISTR _someone_ is working on it, for the Xircom or a similar card, but I can't remember who that someone is right now. Ade Lovett is working on -CURRENT support for the xe driver but like the rest of us seems to be suffering from too much Real Job just now :-( > Sorry if these are FAQs, I just recently got into this laptop game. I should probably put together a FAQ list on of these days. #1 would be "no I can't help you download the latest Windows drivers from www.xircom.com" (I've been asked to do effectively that about four times in the last couple of weeks...who _are_ these people?)
