Hi!
I have successfully installed the PCMCIA CardBus NIC with realtek 8139 chip. I'm using the yenta_socket module and of course the 8139too module.
As test I set up the interface with
ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.5 up
and made a ping to another host.
Seems all to be ok.. no problems there.
When I put my Notebook in sleeping mode and resume it, ifconfig shows still the same network configuration, BUT now I can't ping any other hosts.
A
ifconfig eth0 down
and
ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.5 up
doesn't help.
Ping says only:
PING 192.168.0.1 (192.168.0.1) from 192.168.0.5 : 56(84) bytes of data.

10 packets transmitted, 0 received, +7 errors, 100% loss, time 9025ms
Have also tried many other things like reloading modules,
shutting down pcmcia before sleeping etc etc....
As last I used the hotplugging scripts...but also without success.
There are no errors in message or something else:-(
After a standby I have to reboot the Notebook for a proper working NIC:-(
Is there any way that it will work? I like standby and hate booting;-)
Other cards have no problems (older realtek, aironet 340) but they aren't cardbus.
