[Herts] Orinoco Wireless PCMCIA driver

OK, I made a new file ifcfg-wlan0 and Mandrake loads the card now on
boot and the card appears to be picking up a signal. It still will not
connect to anything.
I've tried #service network restart, but that doesn't help much apart
from umounting and remounting
However, I now appear to have an IRQ conflict with another device and I
don't really know where I go from here. It is the only PCI device,
although it's possible I put it into the other slot by mistake.

Is someone still bringing a wireless AP/bridge to February's LUG?

Thanks for the help so far,
Lexx

Here's what dmesg gives me:
