'man pccard.conf' should explain... better than I would anyway.

What, if anything, is in /etc/pccard.conf on your system?
Have you changed anything in /etc/defaults/pccard.conf?  Right down towards
the end of that file you should see the following:

card "Xircom" "CreditCard 10/100"
        config  auto "xe" ?
        insert  /etc/pccard_ether $device start
        remove  /etc/pccard_ether $device stop

It *looks* as though pccardd is trying to configure the card using
configuration entry #0, which doesn't exist on a CE3.  This shouldn't
happen with the default pccard.conf file -- the 'auto' on the config line
tells it to configure using whatever config entries are actually present on
the card.

What do you get from 'pccardc dumpcis'?

Cheers,

	Scott
