I just bought myself a Surecom EP-427X PCMCIA net card for use on my 
Thinkpad 600, as it was listed in the list of compatible hardware as an 
NE2000 clone.

I set up the ed driver in my kernel config (device ed) and set up an 
entry in pccard.conf, as the card identified itself differently than the 
Surecom in the default pccard.conf.

card "CouplerlessPCMCIA" "100BASE"
     config auto "ed" ?
     insert /etc/pccard_ether $device start
     remove /etc/pccard_ether $device stop

I think the identification may be different to that in the default 
pccard.conf because it's a new version of the card with no dongle. I was 
hoping so anyway.

When I insert the card, it matches the entry in pccard.conf but fails to 
get going properly with the following messages from pccardd: driver 
allocation failed for CouplerlessPCMCIA(100BASE): Device not configured.

Could anyone help me out with what I've done wrong here.

Thanks.
