Hi,
after noticing that my Netgear FA411 (PCMCIA-NIC) [1] stopped working with
the release of the 2.6.25 kernel (sidux-version), I checked the
respective driver sources and noticed that the pcnet_cs driver bailed
out with "use axnet_cs instead" for the Netgear FA411, but axnet_cs
doesn't claim this ID.
I compiled a kernel with the PCMCIA-ID for the netgear card moved to
axnet_cs from pcnet_cs which worked. I then contacted sidux-kernel
maintainer Stefan Lippers-Hollmann who turned the info into this patch
and integrated it into the kernel:
<http://svn.berlios.de/svnroot/repos/fullstory/linux-sidux-2.6/trunk/debian/patches/features/2.6.27.4_PCMCIA_move-PCMCIA-ID-for-Netgear-FA411-from-pcnet_cs-to-axnet_cs.patch>
This works for me and AFAIK there were no reports of any breakage for
other devices on sidux-support.
This looks like a trivial patch, but since I have very limited
experience with kernel modifications I might be woefully wrong there.
But if there are no side effects of this patch, is it possible to get it
into the official kernel?
I can provide more detailed information on the affected hardware if
necessary.

there's several drivers that have use "tx_timeout" for the .. tx
timeout function. All fine with that, they're static, however for
doing stats on how often which driver hits the timeout it's a tad
unfortunate. The patch below gives the ones I found in the

Since we're just parsing the tuple being passed to this function, we don't
need any device-specific information.
Also, remove the call to pcmcia_validate_cis() from pcmciamtd.c, since it
is already called by the PCMCIA core.

Megahertz EM1144 PCMCIA ethernet adapter needs special handling
because it has two VERS_1 tuples and the station address is in
the second one. Conversion to generic handling of these fields
broke it. Reverting that fixes the device.

wn3_config is shared by these cards; the way we deal with it is both bad C
(union abuse) and broken on big-endian. For 3c515 it's less serious (ISA
cards are quite rare outside of little-endian boxen), but 3c574 is a pcmcia
one and that'd better be endian-independent... Fix is the same in both
cases.

Both store MAC address in CIS; there's no decoder for that
type (0x88) so the drivers work with raw data. It is
byteswapped, so ntohs() works for little-endian, but for
big-endian it's wrong. ntohs(le16_to_cpu()) does the
right thing on both (and always expands to swab16()).
