No power applied to wireless lan card?

Hello,

I can't get my wireless orinoco gold card going. No live cds
(knoppix/ubuntu) in their latest versions could get it running. The LEDs
on the pcmcia card always stay switched off. Unfortunately I can't find
an error message regarding a power problem anywhere and it's the only
pcmcia card available for me. The card works fine on windows on the same
machine.

This is the output while the card is inserted into the notebook:
