it looks like it's some kind of cyclades clone. The manual does not mention
the cyclom board but it came with xeroxed instructions on how to use the
card in linux with the cyclom driver. So it can't be too distant.   There's 
propably some minor incompatibility somewhere.

Anyway I'm determined to get this thing to work now. I'll check the linux
driver source for any hints.

Looks like the card is not throwing any interrupts.   I'll let you know
once I find out more.

	ck@toplink2: {49} vmstat -i
	interrupt      total      rate
	clk0 irq0     1185647      101
	rtc0 irq8     1493333      128
	sc0 irq1           22        0
	ep0 irq10      104591        8
	Total         2783593      238


Greetings and thanks for all the help
Christian
