I bought this SMC-Card three month ago and was near to put it into an
eBay-auction. I had never(!) thought that this pice of Hardware would
ever work on linux.
During Installation I found an additional "error" in the code off
/setup/pcmcia_cs/fastvnet_cs.c (Line 981).
I fixed this and attached the new file (together with your
"#include"-line). The reason for this are probably too large fingers on
the programmers keyboard:
There's a "S" where a "G" should be in "SIOCSIWNAME"
-> <-
I'm not into programming but after changing this two letters "make
pcmcia" worked and i could activate the interface using ifconfig.
Please use diff to see:
[...]

I use Debian (woody) with my own 2.4.20 on a Fujitsu-Siemens AmiloD
laptop and would be very happy to find this note for other Debian-Users
on your page.
Many thanks & greetings from Germany,
