Most probably Yes
But what is really your card ? I do not know any Intel 2021. There is an Intel 2011 and an Intel 2011B I have no experience with those cards but Intel 2011 is supposed to worked with the orinoco drivers (check /etc/pcmcia/hermes.conf) But the Intel site also says that the Intel 2011 requires spectrum24 http://sourceforge.net/projects/spectrum24/ http://www.hpl.hp.com/personal/Jean_Tourrilhes/Linux/Linux.Wireless.drivers.htm l#Spectrum24t The problem with this last one is that it is not provided as a pcmcia kernel driver . It is not part of the pcmcia-cs package either. You might send a post to the spectrum list: http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=34783 It seems that the spectrum stuff does not work with the pcmcia kernel mode. Only with the pcmcia_cs approach. I am considering switching back to this approach for pcmcia support. Seems more robust than pcmcia kernel route. >From the spectrum README: <BEG QUOTE> Symbol Spectrum24 Linux driver Beta 5 In order to get this driver up and running you must have the pcmcia package installed. This driver was compiled against and tested with version 3.1.24 of David Hinds' pcmcia package. This driver also requires version 2.2.x or 2.4.x of the Linux kernel. I may get around to porting it backwards at some point, but with all the advantages to driver writers that the newer kernel offers, it made sense to start there. NOTE: in the 2.4.x kernel, it was tested with the kernel support for PCMCIA *off*, I'm not sure why, but there are some compatibility issues that can arise when the native kernel level support is turned on. <END QUOTE> Hope that will help.
