Score!

Everything works now! And get this... I can now view my digital camera images without Windows using my CompactFlash adapter ... but cooler, I can access it from Samba from my desktop Linux system or Windows, and when I'm looking at the folder in Windows, once I eject the card on my laptop, the folder window closes. Heh.

Off to Starbucks to test the wireless card and play with the wireless-tools package.
