I'm not familiar enough with pcmcia-cs nor hotplug to guess what's
happening, but beware that for a variety of reasons just disabling
a package is not the same as removing it, at least for the purposes
of your test. For example the packaging system's "diversions" may
affect both packages and the only way to eliminate any interaction
may be to remove one or the other package.
On the other since you're a newbie be cautious about removing
hotplug, since it could make your system unbootable.
Hopefully somebody more familiar with your issues can help at
this point.
If I first manually start pcmcia I can ifup the network.
Any guidance would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Peter

If you have cardctl then I assume you are running pcmcia-cs.
It's not clear
to me why you would need both that and hotplug, because it
seems that their
functions overlap (although hotplug is listed in the
"recommended" section
of pcmcia-cs). Here is a link I found that supports this theory:
