Last time I used a Xircom stuff there was a little support.  There was
linux support for the Xircom 33.6 pcmcia modem, and also for their 10
base-t NIC.  There was no support for the 56k or the 10/100 NIC.  Which
was quite a pain in the arse as I had a Xircom modem / NIC combo card,
so I was totally screwed.

Is the realport a combocard or what?
