Actually the 574 is pccard and not cardbus. My guess is that the
original poster's rev of the card may not be in pccard.conf.
Jan, try adding the following entry to /etc/defaults/pccard.conf:
# 3Com Megahertz 574BT same as 3Com Fast Etherlink 3C574B
# this is a hack based on the 574BT entry
card "3Com" "Megahertz 574BT"
config auto "ep" ? 0x1
insert /etc/pccard_ether $device start
remove /etc/pccard_ether $device stop
You may need to tweak the "card" line to match the strings that your
card puts out.
