Problem about coding for a Sandisk WiFi Card.: msg#00012

Subject: Problem about coding for a Sandisk WiFi Card.
Hello, all,

I am new here. I am trying to add some code into the
orinoco driver to let my Sandisk WiFi card work. It is
a 128MB + Wi-Fi CompactFlash card (SanDisk
SDWCFB-128). Since it is a multi-function card, and it
has a COR register, I guess I should add some code
into the orinoco_plx.c to do some initial work. 

After I complied and installed the orinoco driver, I
added several lins at the bottom of the file
/etc/pcmcia/hermes.conf :
*****************************************
card "Sandisk"
  version "SanDisk", "ConnectionPlus"
  manfid 0xd601, 0x0101
  bind "orinoco_plx"
*****************************************
I got those 'manfid' by using 'dump_cis'.

Then I reboot my laptop and plug/unplug the card, and
checked 'dmesg'and 'lsmod', but the orinoco_plx mod
was not inserted and print out nothing.

I tried some other pcmcia cards, they surely work and
I can see the message by typing 'dmesg'. So the pcmcia
core works. I don't know what else I should do to let
pcmcia core load the orinoco_plx mod.

Thank you for your help!

Regards,
kunlong
