RE: [TCLUG:22457] Switching Ethernet Cards

["Austad, Jay" <austad@marketwatch.com>]

If it's a pcmcia card you're putting in, you shouldn't be using the modules
that come with the kernel, you should be using the ones with card services.
If card services is running, it should detect and bring up your card as soon
as you pop it in.  Of course, I had a toshiba laptop that required you to
have it in on boot or it wouldn't work.

Sounds to me like you'd learn alot more by reading the how-to.
