One of ELSAs wireless network cards is not supported because
it's vendor string does not match any known entry in pccard.conf.
I added this one to /etc/defaults/pccard.conf :
card "ELSA" "Vianect WLAN MC-11"
config auto "wi" ?
insert /etc/pccard_ether $device start
remove /etc/pccard_ether $device stop
The card seems to be a relabeled Lucent/Orinocco Card and works
fine using this pccard.conf setting and probably someone wants
to add it permanently.
The card works also in current (5.1-CURRENT) without any
modifications (because there's no pccardd ;) ).
