I got a old old Dell Latitude XPI P120ST.
It has a port replicator.
I got the scsi cdrom to work.
I just cant get the 3c509 nic to work.
I've got the correct build for the module
3c509.o for the kernel.
When I type in insmod 3c509.o it gives
this error: init_module: no such device.

Then it says it could be giving errors because of settings.
Does anyone know how I should set the correct settings?

Does anyone also know what PCMCIA nics work with DSL?
Kind of lost.
Thanks

Please read < this >. It might help you.

I'm using WiFi PCMCIA with PCI extension card on my PC. The same card can be used on my laptop also. It works fine.
