Hi, I have ??? laptop (it has a badge on the top: 'PORTOCOM') and the company from its bottom: Multimedia Network Computer (Made in Taiwan). That's all I know about it. I'd like to use its noname multifunction card but I am stucked. In the following I paste the logs and some comments how I got it. I am very curious about the solution, if any... thanks in advance.
