Netgear FA511 and Red-Hat Linux Enterprise 4 WS

Can someone point me to a place where I can either find drives for the 
PCMCIA card for my version of linux, or tell me what I need to do to 
get the code to compile on my Presario 700US Notebook?

Thanks
Greg

I think your RHEL4 should recognise you PCMCIA chipset
so what is your pcmcia card ? (ethernet? wifi ?....)

I had to install the support for the pcmcia from a satelight location, 
but it does recognize it fine.  The card itself is a Netgear FA511 
10/100 Ethernet card

FA511 are completely regognized by Linux, so what is the problem ?
do this:

dmesg | grep -i netgear

Ok, did a little messing around, and this is a little more information 
I found.
PCMCIA Controler is Texus Instruments PCI1410PC card Cardbus Controller

When the FA511 card is inserted the hardware detection shows an 
unidentified device and labels it AMDtek:Unknown Device 1085

Thanks for trying.  I might also need to update the bios on this 
notebook as it's older and I don't think has ever been updated.

Just hope I didn't waste my money on this pcmcia card as I have nothing 
else to use it in.

Thanks
Greg
