MAC address errors: SIOCSIFHWADDR

I am having some issues getting airjack to work.

It compiled fine on a Gentoo Linux based system,
gcc 2.95.3
pcmcia-cs-3.2.1
airjack-v0.6.2-alpha-defcon (also tried non defcon rls)
SMC2632W Prism2 card (also tried Linksys, Senao, and Lucent cards).

The card appears to initialize ok:
$ lsmod
Module Size Used by Not Tainted
airjack_cs 16800 0 (unused)
ds 6752 2 [airjack_cs]
i82365 23376 2
pcmcia_core 43936 0 [airjack_cs ds i82365]

$ ifconfig aj0

$ dmesg

I also tried on a Redhat 7.3 /w pcmcia-cs-3.1.31 (as suggested in howto). Exactly the same errors.

Any ideas?
What cards have been tested and known working?
