I just purshased a Toshiba 430CDS Laptop that I plan to run Debian on. I have been running Debian on a desktop for about a year now, so I'm comfortable with it.
My question has to do with the PCMCIA cards that are available now. I will need to run a modem and an ethernet card at the same time, and I was worried about cable interference and thinking of the future (the machine only has two slots). I figured the the 3com (3c562D) modem/ethernet combo card would do the trick, but a quick look through the Hardware and PCMCIA How-to's revealed that interrupts could be a problem. Should I get separate cards, or a combo? Price isn't a huge issue here, reliability is much more important. Thanks for the help. ---------------------------------------------------------------- "Change is inevitable, except from a vending machine."
