I recently purchased a similar, if not the same, card at Best Buy.  The problem
is that pccard.conf does not have an entry for this rev of the card.  I 
duplicated the existing entry in pccard.conf and changed it to something like:

#Linksys EtherFast 10/100 PC Card (PCMPC100 2)
card "Linksys" "EtherFast 10/100 PC Card (PCMPC100 2)
	config 0x3 "ed" ?
#	config auto "ed" ? 
	insert /etc/pccard_ether $device
	remove /sbin/ifconfig $device delete

I don't have the laptop here so I'm not absolutely certain of the "PCMPC100 2" 
string.  pccardd should tell you exactly what the string needs to be.
