Linux-wlan install breaks Fedora test2 pcmcia

After upgrading last night with the latest updates for test2 and
re-installing the linux-wlan driver, it still breaks pcmcia.  Any pointers
or direction would be appreciated to figure out how to get this to work. 
I don't understand why it is breaking pcmcia.

---

After installing linux-wlan on Fedora test2 (Vaio R505TS ACPI Laptop),
pcmcia breaks with the following upon startup:
[root at localhost linux-wlan-ng-0.2.1-pre12]# /etc/init.d/pcmcia start
Starting PCMCIA services: modulesmodprobe: Can't locate module pcmcia_core.o
modprobe: Can't locate module yenta_socket.o
modprobe: Can't locate module ds.o
 cardmgr.

In /var/log/messages:
Oct  2 23:35:42 localhost cardmgr[8783]: starting, version is 3.1.31
Oct  2 23:35:42 localhost cardmgr[8783]: no pcmcia driver in /proc/devices
Oct  2 23:35:42 localhost cardmgr[8783]: exiting

I am using pre12 in this example but I have tried other version of the
linux-wlan code and the result of breaking pcmcia has been the same.  Any
help would be appreciated.  Re-ran depmod -a.  Also rebooted.

Kernel Params:
acpi=on nogui      (also tried with pci=biosirq)
