This is an indication that the userspace program "cardmgr" from pcmcia-cs
which is -as of now- still needed for in-kernel PCMCIA support is not
running. Try issuing the command "cardmgr" as super-user, and check if the
interface is available then.

Well, not all changes done to the files are marked in the copyright headers,
http://linux.bkbits.net has a better overview of when what changes...
Russell King and some others do currently update the in-kernel PCMCIA _core_
drivers [i.e. ds, pcmcia_core, ...], but not the individual PCMCIA _device
drivers_, e.g. 3c589_cs
