Being the brave (careless?) Linux hacker that I am, I often run the
bleeding edge development kernels.  It looks like the development
kernel 2.1.120 (and perhaps earlier known good ones like 2.1.115) have 
support for your card built in.

WARNING!  WARNING!  2.1.x are DEVELOPMENT kernels and so things could
be wrong.  You could, for instance, have filesystem code that is
broken that loses all your data if you are not careful about when you
remove your PCMCIA cards.  Ahem.  :-)

That said, I've found 2.1.x kernels more stable than Windows, BUT your 
mileage may vary.  You've been warned!
