Hi,
       Recently I got an Orinoco Silver card working
on my desktop using an Orinoco PCI adapter. I am using
kernel 2.4.16 and pcmcia-cs-3.1.29. However, my
SMC2632W card doesn't work with the same
configuration. The only change I have made is to the
wireless.opts file. The network.opts file is set up
correctly as are config.opts, ifcfg-eth1 etc. The
output of ifconfig, iwconfig and lsmod are as follows:

[root at localhost sysconfig]# iwconfig eth1

I hope that someone in the list can tell me what I am
doing wrong and guide me in the right direction. 

Thanks a lot,
rakesh
