I have the same problem with the smc2802W card. But the 2835W in my laptop
works great!
When using the latest snapshot: patch-2.4.23-pre9-prism54-CVS-2003-11-09.bz2
My system immediately locks up: BUG islpci_mgt: 254

When using patch-2.4.23-pre9-prism54-CVS-2003-11-07.bz2 the cards works for
some time
but will lock up the system eventually.with a simulair line like: BUG
islpci_mgt: 254

Grtz,
Hugo
