Does this apply to RH5.1 w/ 2.0.35 kernel? The kernel identifies mine as the
TI 1131 cardbus (although the documnetation says its a TI 1250) , but my
cardbus ethernet adapter (amb8100) is identified as a memory card. My
regular pcmcia modem works fine.
I think this ethernet adapter id based on the DEC 21143 chipset. Can anyone
tell me what module to load to support this?
thanks
charles
