Prism2, DWL-650 and ISA adaptor problems

The DWL-650 is NOT a cardbus card.  It's regular
pcmcia.  I have one and it works fine in my libretto
50ct with 16-bit ISA PCIC.  Cardbus cards have a gold
strip above the connector.

-----------------------

The DWL-650 is a Cardbus (32 bit) card - I doubt it
will ever work in any
ISA->PCMCIA (16 bit) adaptor.

You will need a PCI->Cardbus adaptor.
