I've done much the same thing, I'm afraid - I gave up on trying to 
get my PCMCIA network card to work under Debian and gave MDK 9.1 a 
try.  The upshot is that I have a fully functionning network card and 
a very pretty KDE 3.1 8-) but no apt-get :-(

Would my success with mandrake suggest that I need a newer version of 
pcmcia-cs or something?  Do you think it's worth trying to install 
the Debian "testing" release?

I haven't give up on Debian (yet)!
