But recent attempts to get it to recognise a Xircom PCMCIA NIC have been unsuccessful. And now, whether the card is in the machine or not, I see the following during boot: pccard: card inserted, slot 0 pcic0: Static bug detected, ignoring hardware. And all attempts to talk to the card fail dismally. I have built a kernel with every potential driver installed. Am I looking at a hardware problem or a software issue? In case it's not obvious, all I know about laptops and PCMCIA could be written several times over on the head of a pin.
