Sorry for not giving these details. This is a fresh -current install from
a 1-5-00 snap. I've tried the above as well as using the full name,
the config for PAO and what pccardc dumpcis | grep Linksys gives me. I
keep getting the same message "no card in database...". The link lights
get turned on but I still get the messages. any ideas?? Does the netgear
FA410TXC work any better?? I really think I am doing something wrong
however somone suggested that I get this card.....
