Or, if he's running a 2.4 kernel, the kernel part of PCMCIA support,
presumably including a lot of the drivers, is now part of the standard
kernel, as I remember....

I don't know whether these databases are good, bad, or indifferent, but
at

	http://lhd.datapower.com/

is the "Linux Hardware Database", and at

	http://www.linuxhardware.net/

is "Linux Hardware.net", and at

	http://www.ibiblio.org/mdw/HOWTO/Hardware-HOWTO.html

and

	http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/Hardware-HOWTO.html

is the Linux Hardware HOWTO - "v99.3, 28 September 1999", so it's not
exactly up-to-the-minute, and at

	http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/Ethernet-HOWTO.html

is the Linux Ethernet HOWTO.
