pcnet_cs card

In the topic -
"Before you post: What to include in a Hardware question."

it says to use "/sbin/cardctl ident" for info on pcmcia cards
and "/sbin/lspci" for info on cardbus cards. Back in 2003.

I have before me a pcmcia ethernet card plugged into my laptop. Dmesg just says "pcnet_cs", and the card just works.

"cardctl" is not found on my full install of slackware 15. Lspci does not show this pcmcia card.

It works without udev ever detecting it. Ethtool just says "no data available". But it does work, as well as can be expected.

I would like to get more information about what linux knows about this card. It must know something in order to successfully be using it. But how to gather the information?
