Hello -,

  I am sure that one of the debian folks will give more exact info,
  but there shouldn't be any problems getting this working with 2.4.
  I am willing to bet that the hardest part is getting the pcmcia
  support installed/operational first.  Once that is done then the
  adapter will load.

  I have done clean installs of RH on several laptops using 3c589
  adapters without a problem (RH kernel includes pcmcia support out of
  the box).  The driver is actually part of pcmcia package and from
  what I have read on the web should support 3c562/3 network side
  without a problem.  You will have to load serial_cs.o to get the
  modem side loaded I believe.

  Do you even have pcmcia support installed yet?  What does dmesg
  show?  What are you seeing on the screen when you start pcmcia?
