Hi all.
I have a Xircom RealPort PCMCIA card model XE2000. Upon running Mandrake 7.2, it successfully detects and sets up the card for me. However, I can not get it recognised in Debian Potato 2.2. I am using DHCP from a win98SE box with ICS.

When I type "cardctl ident" I get the following.

Product Info: "Xircom", "10/100 Network PC Card", "1.00", "XE2000"
Manfid: 0x0105, 0x010a
It also states that it is a network card with the ID of 6. I enter a name and the manfid details into the card database, but still nothing happens.

I am using a Toshiba Satelite 2710DVD. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
