Hi all;

Im trying to get a recently acquired dlink DWL-650 wireless card to
work in the ISA->PCMCIA adaptor of a 2.4.12 Linux box, Im also trying
to get the Prism2 AP [1] drivers working with it. 

Although I've has success with other cards in the ISA adapator (
wavelans, udrive ), this one is being a pain. I've got a feeling that
it could be something to do with the DWL-650 being a 3.3v ( cardbus ?
) card and the ISA adaptor not knowing this ?? Im a bit of a fool when
it comes to figuring issues like this. 

Heres what dmesg gives me when it trys to load the card;
