The airo driver does not get the PCMCIA cards going. I
have been experiencing this problem since 2.4.20, could
also be due to firmware upgrade.
Any suggestions what can be tried ?

I had this same problem, this is because of the 5.x
firmware. Downgrade to 4.25.30, and get the windows ACU
utility for 4.25.30 also. Seems that these linux drivers
don't work with the 5.x firmware (this is straight from
Cisco themselves).
