I tried that card on a machine and returned it due to the apparent
problems with the Tulip driver. In my case, it created some sort of
conflict (where I am not certain). I'm pretty sure that I filed a
bugzilla on it. You can search by reporter name.

You MIGHT want to try kernel 2.6 which has new Tulip drivers.

PCMCIA (IMO) is the weakest link in Linux.
