You shouldn't have to do that, if it's a supported card.  Get rid of 
the explicit mappings in /etc/modules.conf, and let the pcmcia drivers 
handle loading of the correct module.  See if that helps.  You may, 
however, have to build your own pcmcia package, if the module you need 
is really new.

Dig around the net for David Hinds' pcmcia stuff, if you need more 
help.
