This is a storage device of some sort?
Nop, The card is a remote assistant card(lspci shows it as "Megarac"). It has a pcmcia card slot(modem), ethernet connection, battery pack....all the essentials to remotely manage a system.
So, what sort of configuration needs to be done for this card?
Upon completion, kudzu should setup should load the "megarac" module and create a character special file "/dev/rac0" with permission mode 644, major and minor number 170 and 0 respectively. Ex: mknod -m 644 /dev/rac0 c 170 0
Actually, if your software just opens that device, it should just be an alias in modutils; kudzu shouldn't have to load the module (and the device should be in the normal dev package)
Is this a cross bug to 60376 ?
