CardServices release does not match

Hi all,
there's always one more obstacle on the way to a working AP, even if you 
think you're done. Right now, and after a lot of help from some of you 
(thanks a lot!) my situation is as follows:
-I got the right pcmcia-modules loaded
-The card is recognized by cardctl ident (at last...)
-hostap-modules are loaded partially (and that's where the problem is)

When the pcmcia services are started, the system issues a high and a low 
beep (ok, better than no beeps at all like before), and the logs show 
hostap_cs-related error messages. But see the attached output yourself, 
hopefully you can help me with this one too.

Thanks a whole lot,

Thomas
