Knoppix, PCMCIA and ndiswrapper on a Toshiba Equium A60

[Zymous]

I'm playing with the Knoppix Live CD on a Toshiba Equium A60.http://uk.computers.toshiba-europe.c...3&DISC_MODEL=0. Working back from my inability to get a couple of wireless cards to work, I'm not sure whether the PCMCIA slot is working properly with Knoppix.
Ndiswrapper installation looks like this

root@1[acx]# ndiswrapper -i TIACXLN.INF
Installing tiacxln
root@1[acx]# ndiswrapper -l
Installed ndis drivers:
tiacxln driver present
root@1[acx]# ndiswrapper -m
Adding "alias wlan0 ndiswrapper" to /etc/modprobe.d/ndiswrapper
root@1[acx]# modprobe ndiswrapper
root@1[acx]# lsmod | grep ndiswrapper
ndiswrapper           116764  0
usbcore               101496  8 ndiswrapper,usbhid,usb_storage,ub,ohci_hcd,uhci_hcd,ehci_hcd
root@1[acx]# iwconfig
lo        no wireless extensions.

eth0      no wireless extensions.

am I correct in thinking that

Installed ndis drivers:
tiacxln driver present

indicates that the hardware isn't detected? (Or that it's the wrong driver?).

lspci looks like this

lspci -n

with or without a card in the pcmcia slot (should that make a difference?)

cardctl looks like this

cardctl status
Socket 0:
  3.3V CardBus card
  function 0: [ready]

/var/lib/pcmcia/stab doesn't exist

Am I missing something obvious? Is there any more information that I can give you?

Thanks in advance for your help
