Howdy Everyone.

Can anyone tell me how to automagically bring up an interface and/or
run a command once a PCMCIA network adaptor is put into the slot.

My laptop (running Potato and 2.2.20, BTW) recognises the card, and
the indicator shows on the NIC and the hub, but I still need to
manually type

ifup eth0

to be able to connect to the machine over the network.
I've had a poke around, but can't see any files that look like they're
the one.

Cheers.

Baz.
