PCMCIA?



Howdy fellow Debianers,
	I've installed Debian (Woody) on my Dell Inspiron 4100 (very, very nice
laptop too by the way, I'll put the specs below, but I have to admit I
haven't had a single problem with it!) and I'm having a bit of problems
getting a Cisco Aironet 352 wireless ethernet card to work.

I'm running kernel 2.4.17 and I downloaded the pcmcia-2.4.17-386 package
as well as wireless-tools and pcmcia-cs. I've enabled wireless ethernet
support in my kernel then included: 
Aironet 4500/4800 series adapters
Aironet 4500/4800 ISA/PCI/PNP/365 support
	In the help section of the item above, it mentions to select 	either
the PCI/ISA/PCMCIA device which should be listed below, 	however only
the PCI and ISA devices are there.
Aironet 4500/4800 PROC interface

When I insert/take the card out, it generates the following syslog
events:
Apr 16 02:08:45 Fish kernel: Linux PCMCIA Card Services 3.1.31
Apr 16 02:08:45 Fish kernel:   kernel build: 2.4.17-386 unknown
Apr 16 02:08:45 Fish kernel:   options:  [pci] [cardbus] [apm]


I've tried reading the howto however I found it a bit confusing. I was
wondering if anyone could point me into the right direction by giving me
some pointers as to what I'm doing wrong.

Thanks!

David
