Robert,
I was attempting to use this same card a year ago on SuSE 5.3, with no luck. I
had exactly the same conditions you mention. The pcmcia driver would activate
and then find the card. Everything should work but the activity light remained
silent. I couldn't ping out, and it would not respond to pings pointed at it.
I evetually found out that Jeff Edwards
I'm using the Xircom Cardbus Ethernet CBE-10/100TX card with the tulip module tulip_cb. Everything seems to load Ok, but nothing from the network. I'm using everything that came default with suse 6.1 jst a different module than the xircom module because it did not work. I read somewhere on a how to to try the tulip module for cardbus cards

Hello again,
Let's see what's going on with your card. Is it a RealPort card??? Which Id gives the card when you boot the PCMCIA package?

OK I got my Xircom pcmcia ethernet adapter working ( I had to use the tulip module ), but after placing all of the correct numbers into the network.opts file I still get the message that the network is not reachable. I also have no green lights on the adapter. I thought it may have been bad hardware, but the card works with no problems under $doze. Any help would be great...And thanks so much for the help so far.
So, what says you lsmod? Is tulip module working? Are you using the RPM distribution that comes with SuSE? You need to get the sources and compile them with support to cardbus. Is that right? Are you using Toshiba TECRA8000? Which option you sed in the BIOS configuration for the PCMCIA ports? See you, Pep Serrano pep@serrano.net http://pep.serrano.net
