Hi

I managed to get my RealPort (Ethernet) to work over re-insertions! The patch
below just calls the RealPort hack from xe_card_init if the card has already
been initialised.

The patch is against 1.20 downloaded from Scott's site.

PS. I really like this mobile computing lark. I debugged this waiting for my
wife to finish wanderering around a garden centre. I tend to invoke fatal DNA
crashes in plants whenever I try to get them to work...
