Try grabbing RedHat 8.0 (purchase or download and burn) if you can,
otherwise, install 7.3 with the linksys card plugged in.  The installer
should detect and install the card for you.  I never got into manually
installing the card in 7.3.  Last time I did that was when I was using
Mandrake 6 and I used the wvlan_ng program.  8.0 will allow you add the card
through the program 'neat'.  

To answer your two questions at the end of your response:

(null) was the beta version for the new RedHat 8.0 Psyche

The Prism2 module is the "driver" that linux uses to drive the linksys
PCMCIA WPC11 card (which I'm guessing you are using, check the model number
on the card).  I have also heard of problems with v.3 of this card.  Is this
the card you are using?

I appreciate your response, but being new to RH, I really do not know
what you are telling me.

My nic is a Linksys 10/100 PCMPC100 PCMCIA card.

You say you are using (null) and that Linksys uses the prism2 module ?
Can you elaborate on those 2 items please ?

I have used a WPC11 card since Redhat 7.1.  I am using (null) right now.
The linksys card uses the prism2 module.  I did notice, however that the
wireless config option in 'neat' was removed.  That was remedied in 8.0.
All of the installs I did for 7.3 though, detected and installed my card
flawlessly.

Subject: Lynksys PCMCIA support ?


Just recently installed 7.3 on my Toshiba Satellite 4015CDT
with only a bit more difficulty that Suse Linux 8.0.

One glaring difference is that RH does not seem to support any hardware
from Linksys (i.e. Pcmcia Ethercard). 

Do I have to buy a new card just because of RH ?
Everyone,:-) else supports this vendor.
Is there not some way of trying to use this card ?

The pcmcia services are running OK.

TIA

Kim
