Thumbs up thankls for reply

I was actaually able to get the card started by cd /etc/init.d ,
and running ./pcmcia start . started right up, now to work on geting back into x , kinda hard to believe id go throught all this crap for a 15 day license. But i guess thats the best way for a newbie to learn

thanks again
