Yeah, popping the card from the AP in your notebook could give some good 
information.  I guess in the grand scheme of things you would want to 
debug a card that way too...

It would be interesting to see what pcmcia-cs thinks the card is....  
matching the IDs.  Might have to have a new distro to have lookups with 
802.11g hardware ids.
