PC Cards, Laptop and Sol 9/x86

807559Apr 14 2003 — edited Apr 14 2003

Hello,
I am looking for information on using a PCMCIA Card on a Compaq Laptop (Presario 1247) running Solaris 8 or 9.
My current setup is using Solaris 8 on that laptop with a 3COM 3C589D. In order for it to work, I bought some drivers from the folks at Lynsoft.com. But I want to put Solaris 9 on this laptop and want to find a NIC card that does not need a driver and is recognized by the kernel upon installation/boot time (just like some of the Intel PCI-NIC cards are seen as iprb0). Is there a PCMCIA card that I can get to accomplish this goal?
