Orinoco card works, SMC 2632W doesn't

Thanks for the suggestion Bin. But that is not the
problem since the SMC options (two of them) appear
under Ethernet cards in .config. 

I have CONFIG_HERMES=m, CONFIG_PCMCIA_HERMES=m,
CONFIG_NET_RADIO=y, CONFIG_NET_WIRELESS=y set in my
config file, which I think should take care of my
SMC2632W card. Can someone correct me if I am missing
something in my .config? Also does anyone have any
other suggestions. If someone could mail me their
working .config file, then it would be great (email:
rake_arora AT yahoo dot com).

Thanks,
rakesh
