It's recognized and ready to go, you just never had it setup.

It didn't find a non-PCMCIA card.

It's recognized, and the driver is allocated for it.

You need to set the ifconfig_pccard line, since the ifconfig_ep0 line is
used for 'desktop' units, and not PCMCIA card.

Note, it still may not work right (it may be using the wrong network
connector), so you may need to modify /etc/pccard.conf to switch between
the different connectors, which is done by using the link flags.
Different models require different settings.
