I had wireless issues when I re-compiled the kernel. Make sure you
*remove* (backup first if you feel like it) your current /lib/modules
directory. For some reason make-kpkg likes going into directories it
shouldn't.  Or maybe it was a different problem--but totally starting from
scratch seems to help sometimes.

Remember that you need two pcmcia packages:
        pcmcia-source (which unpacks as pcmcia-cs)
        pcmcia-cs
This was totally confusing for me.

I posted this earlier to the orinoco list..maybe it will be of some help?
        * remove/move previous versions of the modules from 
                /lib/modules/<version>/pcmcia
                /lib/modules/<version>/kernel/drivers/net
        * cd /usr/src
        * apt-get install pcmcia-source
        * gunzip, untar the file pcmcia-cs.tar.gz (it will create a directory
        named "modules" if one isn't already created and put the files in a
        sub-directory named modules/pcmcia-cs)
        * cd /usr/src/modules/pcmcia-cs/wireless and check to see that
        orinococ.c has the correct version in the headers
        * apt-get install pcmcia-cs
                as best I can tell this will 
                create the directory pcmcia-cs-<version> IF you have NOT already
                installed pcmcia-source. If you have already installed
                pcmcia-source I believe pcmcia-cs is added to the
                /usr/src/modules/pcmcia-cs directory (desired effect)
        * cd /usr/src/linux
        * make-kpkg clean
        * make-kpkg --append-to-version=.<date> kernel_image modules_image
        * cd /usr/src
        * dpkg -i kernel-image<version>.deb
        (lilo updates as required)
        * dpkg -i pcmcia-modules<version>.deb
        * reboot
        * uname -a to check the current kernel
