[leaf-wisp] ath0 PCMCIA card not recognised?

I'm having trouble getting a PCMCIA card recognised as an Atheros card. 
  I'm using the image file wisp-dist_1.3.1p33_img.bin in a Soekris 4511.

The results of cardctl ident are:

Socket 0:
   product info: "Proxim, Corp.", "802.11a Wireless CardBus Adapter.", 
"CIS REV 1
.2", "Copyright 2002"
   manfid: 0x0126, 0x0007
   function: 6 (network)
   PCI id: 0x168c, 0x0007

If I do a 'modprobe ath_pci', I get:

insmod: /lib/modules/2.4.25: No such file or directory
PCI: No IRQ known for interrupt pin A of device . Please try using 
pci=biosirq.
Using /modules/aath_pci: cache line size not set; forcing 4
th_pci.o
ath_pci: cannot reserve PCI memory region
ath_pci: No devices found, driver not installed.
insmod: init_module: ath_pci: No such device

I get the same results with a different (newer) 802.11a PCMCIA card 
(though a different cartctl output).

Any clues please?

thx, michael
