Still trying to get this running.  At least its recognized.  Can't seem to
configure this correctly.  Runs on XP 'OK.  Help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

I just want to set up a fixed address on the order of
	iface eth1 inet static
            address 192.168.1.107
            netmask 255.255.255.0
            broadcast 192.168.1.254
            gateway  192.168.1.100

ESSID "WLAN"

debian-gtwy:/etc/pcmcia# iwconfig eth1
eth1      IEEE 802.11-DS  ESSID:""  Nickname:"debian-gtwy"
          Mode:Managed  Frequency:2.457GHz  Access Point: 00:00:00:00:00:00
          Bit Rate:11Mb/s   Tx-Power=15 dBm   Sensitivity:1/3
          Retry limit:4   RTS thr:off   Fragment thr:off
          Encryption key:off
          Power Management:off
          Link Quality:0/92  Signal level:134/153  Noise level:134/153
          Rx invalid nwid:0  Rx invalid crypt:0  Rx invalid frag:0
          Tx excessive retries:0  Invalid misc:0   Missed beacon:0

However, no manner of incantation will let me configure the thing.

	iwconfig eth1 essid "WLAN"

won't change the above and the explicit "commit"

debian-gtwy:/etc/pcmcia# iwconfig eth1 commit
Error for wireless request "Commit changes" (8B00) :
    SET failed on device eth1 ; Operation not supported.

Using hotplug/pcmcia-cs with the card being in the orinoco_cs family
