Linux Hardware Compatibility HOWTO: Appendix B. Supported PCMCIA cards
These cards are supported by David Hinds' PCMCIA package and this list
is taken from his web page (
http://hyper.stanford.edu/HyperNews/get/pcmcia/home.html ).
SMC, Megahertz and Ositech cards use the smc91c92_cs driver
3Com and Farallon cards use the 3c589_cs driver
Fujitsu, TDK, RATOC, CONTEC, Eagle and Nextcom cards use the fmvj18x_cs driver
All other cards use the pcnet_cs driver. Other NE2000-compatible cards that are not on the list are also likely to work with pcnet_cs.

Be careful. Many vendors, particularly CD-ROM vendors, seem to switch controller chips at will. Generally, They will use a different product code, but not always: older (supported) New Media Bus Toaster cards are not easily distinguishable from the current (unsupported) Bus Toaster cards.

These card drives are supported starting with kernel 1.3.72. Both Flash-ATA cards and rotating-media cards are supported. The very old Western Digital 40MB drives are not supported, because they do not conform to the PCMCIA ATA specifications.
