I've had no problem getting 16 bit PCMCIA cards to work (I've tested 
Lucent WaveLan Bronze (2Mb) and Silver (11Mb)) but when I put in a 
cardbus card - such as a LevelOne 802.11g card I just get an error 
about unable to allocate memory (I saw something about this on the 
forums on epiawiki.org, but was unable to make it work).

Hope that helps.
