you need to download the pcmcia-cs source code and patch it with one of the orinoco patches from the airsnort page...

then you need to force cardmgr to use the orinoco_cs driver by either editing the existing /etc/pcmcia/hermes.conf if wlan-ng installed it or /etc/pcmcia/network.conf. A third option would be to create a new config file in /etc/pcmcia named custom.conf or whatever you want to name it (ending has to be .conf)

in this file you would put somthing along the lines of:

card "Lucent Technologies WaveLAN/IEEE Adapter"
version "Lucent Technologies", "WaveLAN/IEEE"
bind "orinoco_cs"

replacing the strings with whatever cardmgr happens to print to the syslog when you insert the card

make sure wireless extensions is enabled in your kernel also, if /proc/wireless/ isnt there you will need to recompile the entire kernel with CONFIG_NET_RADIO or whatever set
