I have both point enablers and a user-level socket controller for the DataBook TCIC/2 available from cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov. David Hind has a more extensive PCMCIA socket controller and device driver package available from tsx-11.mit.edu. His package supports both the TCIC/2 and i82365 and is based on loadable kernel modules. -- Donald Becker becker@cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov USRA-CESDIS, Center of Excellence in Space Data and Information Sciences.
