Ummm, with mine (EtherH cad, bought around January) I can only use 
Kernels up to and including 4740 in this way. If I just do an ehtest or 
whatever under RiscOS first it will work 99.9 % of the time, apart from 
all sorts of messages eg eh: no carrier , ehstart : failed to load packet 
etc etc etc. If I don't use the card under RiscOS it almost always fails 
to work. 

All later kernels find the card but claim that podule8: not configured 
(as the unsupported HiVision card does).

Any ideas anyone when any newer kernels may appear ?
