mem0,  What version? V2.5, 3.0, 4.0. The new version 4.0 card have no Linux drivers, so you would need to use ndiswrapper which alows you to use the Windows drivers that came with the card.

i have a v3 card. Which works on fedora, slackware and at least 1 other knoppix variant.

I just tried a netgear wireless card and it did not power up either. I think it's a problem with PCMCIA itself.

I'm using a WPC-11 V.3 card and it works fine, so the problem isn't with drivers. It Quite possibly may be a irq conflict. Do you have any other PCMCIA cards installed? I know that when I run both the Linksys card and a Kodak PCMCIA to Compact Flash adapter at the same time my sound stops working. On my laptop I am able to change irq settings in the bios setup, and was able to solve my problem by shutting off IR support. Just a thought.
