[For English language lists, you should probably set an English locale
(perhaps 'C') for the posted output of commands.]

So the kernel / driver is not setting up an interface for the card.

Try removing the card, running 'tail -f /var/log/syslog' in a terminal,
and then reinserting the card. Post whatever gets added to the log.
Similarly for dmesg, note the last message before reinserting the card,
and then post whatever gets added when you reinsert.

That's pretty weird; I don't have that much experience with PCMCIA
cards, but it seems that the kernel isn't finding any hardware it
recognizes. I don't have anything else to offer at this point.
