First of all thanks for that information.

I have looked into "/usr/src/sys/dev/pcmcia/if_ne_pc.c" and found the
list "ne2000devs[]", but I'm not shure what should go into that list.
Can I get the information out of "var/log/messages" as append in my
first posting about this, because I didn't bought the card yet.

My first gusse for the entry is:
  { "TAMARAC",
    0xffff, 0xffff, ?, ?,
    ?, ?, {?, ?, ?} },

The question mark (?) means that I'm not shure wher I can get the
information.

BTW. I can eventualy (if the shop get the card, they say we will get it
next week since 1 month) can test an other card, which will be a combinded
card ethernet and modem. Will it be worth testing it? I ask because in an
other shop they told me I will need a very new laptop to use such cards.
