Ken,

I have an IBM PCMCIA SCSI card.  I believe that it is a
relabled Future Domain card as it runs with a new
FD16-700.ADD (the same ADD drives a FD1680 ISA SCSI 
card).

I have never tried Linux.  I have run the IBM card under
OS/2 Warp and Warp Connect on an IBM 755CX and under
Warp on a Toshiba T4600C.  The card also works under
DOS/Win on the 755CX.

I have used it with a HP1533A tape drive and a Toshiba
2X SCSI-2 CDROM.
