In addition, the standard pcmcia distribution now detects and uses the
Debian network interfaces file (man interfaces). You can configure the
PCMCIA card just like any other network device via
/etc/network/interfaces.
Install the iwconfig package, and you should be able to control the
wireless parameters via the interfaces file. Just at the word
wireless_ to the front of the iwconfig parameter name (for example, to
set essid use wireless_essid in the interfaces file).
If I'm making no sense to you it is probably because you have to go
try it ;-)
