well just to try it. I also modified /etc/pcmcia/config;


device "orinoco_cs"
class "wireless"
module "hermes","orinoco","orinoco_cs"

card "Netgear MA401"
manfid 0x000b, 0x7300
bind "orinoco_cs"

and


The card seems to be detected and the light comes on; I can even start
to set some of the card's settings, e.g. ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.99;
ifconfig eth0 essid, etc. But x.x (cue drumroll!) the light goes out
on the card after a short time, and the system locks up !

DId you assign an IP address manually (with ifconfig)? Try running udhcpc instead.

Other people report their entire computer locking up when they use this card but someone had a solution.

Getting a little further!
