There was some pretty well documented breakage in Debian Woody for a
while this winter -- check debian-user and/or debian-devel and/or
debian-laptop in February.  The bugs against pcmcia-cs appear to have
migrated off the bug page (anyone know if old bugs are available
somewhere?)

My own comments on the issue, with links elsewhere:

  http://lists.debian.org/debian-laptop/2002/debian-laptop-200202/msg00192.html

Bug report:

  http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=133968

My understanding (and having recently revved another box, experience) is
that the problem is mostly resolved.  Or is it?  My currently-being
rebuilt box just lost PCMCIA last night, though I haven't had a chance
to investigate yet.  So you may have a new issue.

Peace.
