Something's strange with your system. My IBM ThinkPad's running a vanilla installation of OL 3.1 Workstation, and the only references I see to wvlan_cs in the /etc/pcmcia are commented out in the config.opts file, and a note in the wireless.opts file. There's no wvlan_cs module compiled. It appears to me that you've got something non-standard on your system, and possibly have recompiled the kernel without recompiling the associated pcmcia-cs RPMS? The kernel, pcmcia, and iBCS modules are joined at the hip so if you compile or replace a new kernel, you also need to recompile these modules as well. I'm just refreshing my mirror of the Caldera site for OpenLinux 3.1, and see some new linux-kernel-binary RPMS, but didn't see any new pcmcia RPMS. If you have incorporated this new RPM, then you may have to grab and rebuild the pcmcia SRPMS to match.
