xircom card bus with 2.4.20 link trouble

Hello,

Since I run the 2.4.20 kernel (+bootsplash patch), (I didn't try without
this patch but I think it is not the problem), my Xircom Cardbus don't
work any more! In fact, I put the card into the pcmcia slot, the pc
detect it, load the correct module (xirc2ps_cb), start eth1 but the led
link (both side) blinks.
I have try with a hub 10, a ethernet card 10 and an ethernet card
10/100. I have so try 2 cables... but same problem.
I have try to impose the ethernet type of link mii-tool -A10BaseT-HD and
-F10BaseT-HD.

Thanks

Arnaud
