Last I knew (straight from the Lucent people), the ISA bridge card worked fine and the PCI card did NOT work at all. I've since confirmed that, first hand, myself (I currently have the ISA bridge in operation) on the 2.2 kernels. The ISA bridge also works on the 2.4 kernels but I have not retested the PCI bridge on 2.4. The Lucent people claim that the Linux pcmcia people are aware of the problem. Mike -- Michael H.
