Graham, I am running SuSE on my laptop and I am using this card. I'm not sure but I believe PCMCIA is loaded as a kernel module rather than a card specific driver.
My question is are you sure that the slot that you are plugging into is correct. My laptop has three slots and my card only works in two of the three. You may want to check the specs of your laptop or if you don't have them, try swapping the card out of one slot to another. Just a thought.
