pcmcia ed0 driver/Thinkpad question

Hello all

I'm trying to run a Network Anywhere NP100 10/100 NIC card in my Thinkpad 
600e. According to the docs this uses the ed(4) driver. Now, I've got a 
vanilla 4.6.2 install on the Thinkpad and everything works great. 

However, when I insert the NIC, I get a bunch of debug output from pccardd 
on ttyv0 and the box refuses to accept any input until the card is 
ejected, at which point I regain control of it. Using pciconf and dmesg, I 
don't see any direct hardware conflicts. Anybody have any idea why this is 
happening?

Also, when the NIC is inserted, the opsys attaches it to an interface at 
ed1 - I was expecting ed0 since there are no other ed-type NICs in the box 
- any reason why it's skipping ed0? Or is this nothing to worry about?

I can provide debug output if needed, but I'll hafta type it all in 
manually ;-)

Thanks in advance for any advice - JB

PS: For reference, before posting to this list, I re-installed the opsys 
(4.6.2) to clear out any manual changes I made to the system. This is a 
clean 4.6.2 install, unmodified in any way. The card still eats my 
Thinkpad.
