Just to add my two cents worth.. I had problems with the PCMCIA setup for Debian 1.3 as well. I had many dependency problems which just wouldn't let me load up the modules. I had to go and get the kernel-source package and the pcmcia source packages and recompile everything myself to get it working. Hopefully the maintainers will figure out what went wrong in the Debian 1.3 release and fix it in the future.
