Hello,

I'm using a CardBus from Allied Telesyn,
model 2800TX, at least (as is in SUPPORTED.CARDS file
from pcmcia-cs package) supported by tulip_cb driver.
This CardBus is 10/100 capable. It is conected to
a 10M hub. 

I tried many options to setup the driver without any
result.

The output of 'tulip-diag -f -ee -a -mm' is

tulip-diag.c:v1.19 10/2/99 Donald Becker (becker@cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov)
Index #1: Found a Digital DS21143 Tulip adapter at 0x60081000.

 Port selection is 10mpbs-serial, half-duplex.
 Transmit stopped, Receive stopped, half-duplex.
  The Rx process state is 'Stopped'.
  The Tx process state is 'Stopped'.
  The transmit threshold is 72.
  The NWay status register is 00000000.
EEPROM size is 6.
  * An old-style EEPROM layout was found.
  * The old-style layout does not contain transceiver control information.
  * This board may not work, or may work only with a subset of transceiver
  * options or data rates.
EEPROM contents:
  0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000

  0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000
 ID block CRC 0xe3 (vs. 00).
  Full contents CRC 0x6523 (read as 0x0000).
   No MII transceivers found!
  Internal autonegotiation state is 'Autonegotiation disabled'.


Q: Can I, or can not, use this card with
Linux? and, how to set up correctly the tulip driver?

(I'm using Red Hat 6.1 on a Laptop with AMD K2 proccessor) 

Cheers,
	Luis Gerardo
