Almost, but not quite. I've just installed 2.2.8-PAO again, as neither 3.1 or 4.0 would have anything to do the with cardbus slots on my Sony Vaio PCG-C1. When I get back from the trip I'll go on in a few hours I'll see if I can get either of them working. The lesson learned here is not to try upgrade the os on your laptop right before you plan to take it on a trip to far away... 2.2.8-PAO worked out of the box though...
