[ale] Problems with SmartMedia Adapter

[Randy Janinda]

It always happens. You voice a problem, and the answer shows up without
intervention. For the record in /etc/pcmcia/config I had to change all
occurances of ide_cs to ide-cs. I don't know why, but found an old post
about it. This fixed the problem.

Thanks anyways.
