The newer ed driver doesn't require the use of fa_select --
I discovered this with my Netgear FA410TX. Have you done a
mergemaster, or at least updated /etc/defaults/pccard.conf?
One of these configurations should work
# D-Link DE-650 and DE-660
card "D-Link" "/DE-6[56]0/"
config auto "ed" ? 0x10
insert /etc/pccard_ether $device start
remove /etc/pccard_ether $device stop
# D-Link DFE-650 Fast Ethernet Card
card "D-Link" "DFE-650"
config auto "ed" ? 0x80010
insert /etc/pccard_ether $device start
remove /etc/pccard_ether $device stop
