    Although, according to prism54.org this is the most successful card for
    use under Linux, I have failed to get it to function.
    I have installed the firmware available via YOU, and Yast detects it
    correctly as a network device, but it fails to initialise.

    Tailing /var/log/messages/ shows that after the firmware is uploaded a
    reset is issued which seems to fail and the device then fails to
    respond, with the command buffer filling up. (don't have a copy at the
    moment as my laptop is elsewhere!)

    I wondered if the firmware might be incorrect, so installed to card on
    another (w2k) laptop and then tried to find the .arm firmware. However
    there are no .arm files on the w2k box. Looking at the .inf file has
    lines that suggests any .arm file is deleted!!

    e.g.
    [NIC_FW.del]
      3C154G72.arm

    Any one got any ideas where to go from here?
