pcmcia orinoco in a desktop, problems

["Mark Lanett" <mlanett@parrotchat.net>]

I've been trying to set up a desktop machine to act as a wireless router and
am having trouble getting the wireless card to work. This is an orinoco
silver in a Lucent PCMCIA adapter - I chose to go with the name brand to
minimize problems. However:

Using: kernel-2.2.20-idepci, pcmcia-modules-2.2.20-idepci, wireless-tools
23-2
Card Services seems to work fine. However there is no orinoco driver.
syslog: module /lib/modules/2.2.20-idepci/pcmcia/orinoco_cs.o not available

Using: kernel-2.4.18-686, kernel-pcmcia-modules-2.4.18-686, wireless-tools
23-2
Card Services fails to start:
/lib/modules/2.4.18-686/pcmcia/i82365.o: unresolved symbol
isapnp_find_dev_R9991be23
[other things fail afterwards]

Trying to fix this up:
# /etc/init.d/pcmcia stop
# rmmod pcmcia_core
# insmod isa-pnp
# /etc/init.d/pcmcia start
/lib/modules/2.4.18-686/pcmcia/i82365.o: init_module: No such device

I've gotten similar errors compiling my own kernel. I'm going to try not
using modules next time.

Any clues?
Thanks in advance,
Mark L
