Guys wasn't sure who to send this to but the following entry in pccard.conf
enables the onboard wireless in the portege and tecra series of notebook that
Toshiba just bought out...
# Toshibas wireless lan card
card "TOSHIBA" "Wireless LAN Card"
config auto "wi" ?
insert /etc/pccard_ether $device start
remove /etc/pccard_ether $device stop
This then gives the following message on pccard start.

01.01] [] matched "TOSHIBA" ("Wireless LAN Card") [(null)] [(null)]

I unfortunately don't have a wireless access point at work as yet so am unable
to test things but it seems like it should work fine.
Cheers,
Mark
