    CardBus is not supported at all in 4.x. If you want to use this card
    you'll have to upgrade to 5.x (which should be less of a scary option now
    that 5.1-R is nearly here). I'm pretty sure that the RBEM cards do work
    with 5.x, although I can't remember which driver they use. The xe driver
    only supports 16-bit Xircom cards, though. Their CardBus stuff uses
    entirely different hardware.

    Cheers,
