Apologies if this has been brought up before,
but whatever happened to the 3c575 (3com pcmcia) card
driver/module in 2.5.x branch? (it was in 2.2.19 for sure).
TIA,

In the case of my laptop's Boomerang card, it's now 3c59x; which
supports all of the 3Com CardBus adaptors.

Thanks for the help,
problem (under 2.5.3) however,
root@paule:/lib/modules/2.5.3/kernel/drivers/net# insmod 3c59x
Using /lib/modules/2.5.3/kernel/drivers/net/3c59x.o
/lib/modules/2.5.3/kernel/drivers/net/3c59x.o: unresolved symbol
del_timer_sync
Which would probably be why it isnt loaded at boot time either :(
Any help would be appreciated.

That can't happen :)
I have checked 2.5.4-pre5 SMP and UP, and the module loads
OK. Possibly 2.5.3 was broken, but it's unlikely. Please
try a `make clean'.

reconfigured kernel, re-made, and reconfigured rc.inet1 (under
slackware8.0) to support multiple interfaces,
and now it's all happy! *yay* :)
(yes im being sick, and using a screen-less laptop to route
two internal networks, but hey, it's less than 1u, and cheaper
than a router :)
Thanks for the help,

It's not needed. "3c59x" provided full support for PCI and CardBus.

An old problem has re-appeared since I have done this,
On a soft-reboot ('reboot / shutdown -r now') the kernel
stops on its way back up stating
Socket Status 0x0000003
(or something similar)
and it then requires a hard-reset to clear.
This only seems to be under the 3c59x code / more-so the vortex module.
Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers,

IRQ storm on the Cardbus controller, probably.
Try the pcmcia-ip-autoconf and yenta-hack patches at
