I finally plugged in the three boards (two senao and a lynksys wmp-11) and I got
the following:

The /proc/interrupts pseudofile shows the following:

NMI: 0
ERR: 0
where no interrupt is catched by hostap_cs which suggests an interrupt problem
with the PCI-PCMCIA bridge.
I tried at /etc/default/pcmcia the following entries:
PCIC_OPTS='irq_mode=0'
PCIC_OPTS='irq_mode=1'
PCIC_OPTS='irq_mode=1 irq_list=0'
PCIC_OPTS='irq_mode=1 irq_list=0 extra_sockets=1'
but I get the same output from iwconfig after restarting pcmcia subsystem.
So it seems the problem is interurpt related but I don't know how to isolate the
problem and solve it.
What do you suggest I can do?
Thanks a lot.
