Alright i'm going to respond to my own post real quick... I built pcmcia
support into the kernel instead of using pcmcia-cs.  I now get the power
light on the card light up.  So then I modprobe hostap and hostap_cs

I see this in dmesg:
hostap_crypt: registered algorithm 'NULL'
hostap_cs: 0.4.9 - 2006-05-06 (Jouni Malinen <jkmaline@cc.hut.fi>)

It also seems to be recognizing a card:
[root@emu-5 pcmcia]# cardctl info
PRODID_1="INTERSIL"
PRODID_2="HFA384x/IEEE"
PRODID_3="Version 01.02"
PRODID_4=""
MANFID=0156,0002
FUNCID=6

However i see no wireless interfaces:
[root@emu-5 pcmcia]# iwconfig
lo        no wireless extensions.

eth0      no wireless extensions.

[root@emu-5 pcmcia]# ifconfig -a
eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:11:43:43:D0:11

Any ideas?

Thanks!
