/lib/modules/2.2.18/pcmcia/ has a bunch of modules, including the one
I need "3c589_cs.o" but 2.2.18 is the old kernel -- I upgraded to
Woody which I imagine is 2.4.10 or something from Testing.
Did the Woody upgrade not take completely?
'apt-get dist-upgrade' will not cause your kernel to be changed, nor should
it install a modules package other than an update of the version for your
existing kernel (the kernel-image and pcmcia modules packages have the
kernel version number as part of the package name). I have a system
running woody which is still using 2.2.17. There are pcmcia-modules
packages for some of the available kernel-image packages. To be safe, you
might consider building your own kernel-image and any modules you may
need. Install kernel-package and read its documentation.

Done.

"no pcmcia driver in /proc/devices"
What should I learn from this, please?
Thanks! Doc
