Yeah, don't bother :). Trivially breakable, so you should be a higher level
auth to allow access.

For the 2.4.x kernels the drivers should be in the kernel and no longer in
a seperate pcmcia package. Try a vanilla kernel package from your dist.

If you get that working, you might be able to figure out how to build your
own if you still want to.
