trouble with Orinoco PCMCIA -> PCI bridge & Linux

I'm trying to get an Orinoco PCMCIA -> PCI bridge card
installed in a linux desktop...

I'm currently using kernel 2.4.17-pre6.  lspci shows
the card detected, but I'm not sure if it's really
being used in any way.  When I plug in the Orinoco
silver wireless adapter, nothing happens (no beeps).

I manually loaded the wavelan_cs.o module, and it
loaded, but did not detect the adapter.

This same kernel works on my laptop with the same NIC,
so I believe it's the card that is the problem...

Has anyone gotten this to work?  Any ideas?

Thanks,
Ben
