One from the kernel source...i suppose you need the pcmcia-cs one. i82365 is a modular pcmcia-cs socket driver from this package ? > and modprobe is successful.

If: /etc/init.d/pcmcia restart gives you an ident it's porobably a coldplug problem. Or just try eject and insert again. > I have no /var/lib/pcmcia directory, thus couldn't check the stab.

Wild guess: On bootup the card is identified as memory card ?

I've experience some similar problems here, with 2.4 kernel inbuilt pcmcia though. Please, continuo with your updates ! -- micha.
