Sad: These cards are not really NE2000 compatible

If they were really NE2000 compatible, then the vendor would not need to distribute a modified driver. I've looked at the changes they've made, and they are substantial enough that they cannot be easily folded into the regular 8390/NE2000 driver. So, you are going to have to convince them to update their driver for later kernels. It is unlikely that the PCMCIA package will include support for these cards any time soon.

This form allows you to delete, move, or copy one or more messages. You can move messages by copying and deleting the original. The action will be applied to the messages you select above and all replies to those selected messages.

If you want to copy or move messages, specify the HyperNews path of a destination forum or message that all messages will be copied or moved to. The destination must already exist, so maybe create it first.

Path of Destination (a Forum or Message): (e.g. "test")

Notify Subscribers at destination

If you want to delete messages (the default), specify that here. If you want to move messages, you need to delete the original messages; placeholders will be left pointing to where they were moved.

Delete Messages
NO

Caution: After deleteing messages (the default), if you have not copied them (i.e. no destination above), then the selected messages are not be recoverable.
