There are different ones. Some are PCMCIA-to-PCI bridges which require a socket services driver to support
the PCMCIA driver. Because the PCMCIA-to-PCI bridges seem to be quirky, there are newer ones with the
PLX9052 chip (from PLX technologies) which don't require a socket services driver. I have one of these cards
here, and I wrote a driver for it :)

There will be support for the IBM miniPCI card - the driver is finished. There will be support for other cards,
too, but this will take some time. The next supported card will be the Cisco350, if things go as planned.

with best regards

Jens Glathe.
