Hmmm...  Did the Apple card get recognized properly and work?
What is the main chip on the Asante MacCon card?  It should have
a number on it somewhere.  Most (all?) Asante cards use the National
Semiconductor 8390 or 83902.  The 83932 (SONIC) doesn't have a driver,
yet, but that's what Apple uses in their Quadras and, I think, in
their LC cards (so the LCIII with the Apple card would not have been
actually configured--hence my first question ;-).
