Sorry, pcmcia just isn't well supported. There is support for most pcmcia network cards in the ltsp_wireless package. I know, odd place for pcmcia support, but as it turned out, we needed pcmcia support to handle wireless cards, the wired cards were just an added bonus. If the docs aren't as clear as you'd like, we do accept contributions in the form of additional documentation. I suggest that you focus on a standard PCI based test of LTSP, to get the feel for how it works. Then, venture off into the world of PCMCIA. I never saw a message from you asking specifically how to get a pcmcia nic working. If I had, I would have mentioned that the ltsp_wireless package was the place to start.
