What do you mean "DSL doesn't see it"? Have you run lspci? Have you looked at dmesg for it? Have you run any of the other tools related to PCMCIA and/or wifi?

If laptop is old it may not support card bus, i.e., gold colored edge cards.
Try using the boot code:  pci=assign-busses
That works for my old TP240 with new(er) cardbus cards.
