Alright i'm going to respond to my own post real quick... I built pcmcia
support into the kernel instead of using pcmcia-cs. I now get the power
light on the card light up. So then I modprobe hostap and hostap_cs
I see this in dmesg:
hostap_crypt: registered algorithm 'NULL'
hostap_cs: 0.4.9 - 2006-05-06 (Jouni Malinen <[email protected]>)
It also seems to be recognizing a card:
[root@emu-5 pcmcia]# cardctl info
PRODID_1="INTERSIL"
PRODID_2="HFA384x/IEEE"
PRODID_3="Version 01.02"
PRODID_4=""
MANFID=0156,0002
FUNCID=6
However i see no wireless interfaces:
[root@emu-5 pcmcia]# iwconfig
lo no wireless extensions.
eth0 no wireless extensions.
[root@emu-5 pcmcia]# ifconfig -a
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:11:43:43:D0:11

Any ideas?
Thanks!
