This has apparently happened on a previous version:

Errors were encountered while processing:
 linux-wlan-ng
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
A package failed to install.  Trying to recover:
Setting up linux-wlan-ng (0.2.4+svn20060414-3) ...
invoke-rc.d: initscript pcmcia, action "reload" failed.
dpkg: error processing linux-wlan-ng (--configure):
 subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 5

the postinst file:

        # Reload pcmcia config files, as this package drops a new one in.
        if [ -x /etc/init.d/pcmcia ]; then
                invoke-rc.d pcmcia reload
        elif [ -x /etc/init.d/pcmciautils ]; then
        ...
                invoke-rc.d pcmciautils reload

are you sure that you have properly replaced pcmcia-cs with pcmciautils?
pcmciautils was installed by aptitude. "properly" is the key word. /etc/init.d/pcmcia was still present. Removing /etc/init.d/pcmcia solves the problem. Could not removing /etc/init.d/pcmcia be considered a bug with the pcmciautils package?

Moving forward:

sudo ifup wlan0 gives me:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo ifup wlan0
FATAL: Module p80211 not found.
Failed to load p80211.o.
run-parts: /etc/network/if-pre-up.d/linux-wlan-ng-pre-up exited with return code 1

I am running a stock 2.6.16-1-486 kernel. The card which doesn't work is a Linksys WPC11 version 4.

If the next error above is not relevant to my bug report I am willing to call 367328 closed.

Thanks,

Paul
