at a guess you compiled support for the PCMCIA stuff as build into the kernel
image, and not as a module. This would be my guess.
I personnaly keep *away* from the debian packages for the kernel and pcmcia
source. I do have installed the pcmcia-cs package. Go download a vanilla
kernel (ftp.uk.debian.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.4 you may want to change the
.uk. to .jp. or your closest mirror) (I may be telling you to do stuff you
have done already however I am thinking of the poor souls searching for
answers via google :) ) and the latest pcmcia-cs source code
(pcmcia-cs.sourceforge.net), compile them.
However do *not* using the kernel based PCMCIA drivers, I have found problems
with them, as has a friend of mine, use *only* the pcmcia-cs packages drivers
for your pcmcia needs.
In the kernel compile support for hot swappable devices but *no* pcmcia
support. Don't even turn on the tick box. Select in the network driver
section supoprt for WLAN cards but do not select any. Compile kernel.
Install kernel and the modules. Now compile the pcmcia stuff, install it and
the modules, reboot and see what happens :)
If you need any help, e-mails to the above address :)
have fun
