Also, hotplug has been replaced with udev. You might want to give pcmciautils and udev a try, as they are the "latest and greatest". If you do, be sure to purge hotplug and pcmcia-cs. And keep a copy of your pcmcia-cs and hotplug debs around in case something goes wrong and you can't get a network going under pcmciautils/udev.
