Linksys WPC11 Wireless

Hi all,
I'm trying to install a Linksys WPC11 pcmcia card onto my Redhat 7.3 Laptop. I have installed the kernel source at /usr/src/linux-2.4.
It is asking me for the following:
pcmcia-cs source dir [/usr/src/pcmcia-cs-3.1.22]:
I included the pcmcia-cs on the install, but I cannot find it. Does somebody know where this is?

Aaron - saw your posting on computing Net in regards to redhat 7.3 and pcmcia linksys wpc11.
I compiled /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES/ "pcmcia-cs-3.1.27" and "wireless-tools23" and installed them fine.. I then compiled and installed "linux-wlan-ng-0.1.14"
before an init pcmcia restart my card had a red solid light and flashing green and an ifconfig showed an eth0.
I did the init pcmcia restart and now I only have a red light. no green.
