Starting another thread on the same problem is not going to get you help any 
more quickly.

OK so you do not have a 'beep' when you insert the card.
That implies the PCMCIA socket is not being detected since even a non 
recognised card will give a 'beep' on insertion.


First confirm that the package pcmcia-cs is installed.

If it is then open a terminal, enter su to become root
and enter
cardctl ident
This should return some info on your pcmcia card.
Post it back to us.

Also tell us what you see when you type
dmesg | grep pcmcia
