There is no "NEWCARD" file. GENERIC is NEWCARD. The config lines I
included result in a NEWCARD kernel. OLDCARD uses pcic and card while
GENERIC uses cbb, cardbus, and pccard. The dmesg should contain entries
for 2 each cbb, cardbus, and pccard devices. The actual Ethernet device
will be way down the dmesg from the other stuff.
