Notice it says CardBus there. No, I don't believe it's 100% PCMCIA. (I
didn't say it wouldn't support PCMCIA).
Here's the card (Sorry, had to pull it from PCI.IDS)
119b Omega Micro Inc.
1221 82C092G
This chip is not cardbus compatable and it only shows up one time in lspci.
I think the machine is a piece of crap, but I didn't pay for it (It's a work
laptop) and I'd love to get 2.3.99* working with it. For now, I'll have to
settle for 2.3.31 with DHinds' pcmcia modules. Unfortunately they won't
compile under kernels newer than 2.3.36 I believe.
