I try to explain to myself what happens here. PCMCIA guys can correct if I get this
wrong.

You first load the pcmcia_core via your pcmcia init script (/etc/init.d/pcmcia?)
> pcmcia_core            40320   0  [xirc2ps_cs i82092 ds i82365]

Then the i82365 socket driver via your pcmcia init script
> i82365                 11780   2

Then the ds module via your pcmcia init script
> ds                      5940   2  [xirc2ps_cs]

Then you load different socket driver again. You should comment out this in your
pcmcia scripts/setup files (where this has been loaded?). Maybe the "ds: no socket
drivers loaded!" and "cs: unable to map card memory!" messages in dmesg is caused by
this??
> i82092                  5992   0  (unused)

Finally the correct driver for you pcmcia card is found! and loaded. This should
call /etc/network script, which will load the network (ethX) up. The network
interface ethX should be configured (ip, mask etc.) elsewhere. Then you should see
the etX with ifconfig.
> xirc2ps_cs             11216   0  (unused)

Maybe you should check the /etc/init.d/pcmcia file. Your /etc/default/pcmcia file
seems to be ok.

PCMCIA=yes
PCIC=i82365
PCIC_OPTS=
CORE_OPTS=
CARDMGR_OPTS=

..or do you have previously used modules from external pcmcia-cs package and now you
used the kernel pcmcia and something doesn't match with your scripts?
