I found out the hard way that the PCMCIA drivers are quite kernel-version specific. If you have trouble with an installed driver, it may be a kernel-version mismatch. I had one that instantly froze the system on card insertion and didn't throw a mismatch error into the log, which made it very hard to find. You may need to compile the PCMCIA stuff. That worked for me. The latest is at sourceforge, pcmcia-cs.
