The newer ed driver doesn't require the use of fa_select --
I discovered this with my Netgear FA410TX.  Have you done a
mergemaster, or at least updated /etc/defaults/pccard.conf?

One of these configurations should work

# D-Link DE-650 and DE-660
card "D-Link" "/DE-6[56]0/"
         config  auto "ed" ? 0x10
         insert  /etc/pccard_ether $device start
         remove  /etc/pccard_ether $device stop

# D-Link DFE-650 Fast Ethernet Card
card "D-Link" "DFE-650"
         config  auto "ed" ? 0x80010
         insert  /etc/pccard_ether $device start
         remove  /etc/pccard_ether $device stop
