If you have a PCMCIA card, then you don't have a PLX card.
You can use a PCI (or ISA) to PCMCIA bridge, but your PCMCIA card does not
become a PLX card.
You need to enable support for PCMCIA devices (in the kernel or with
pcmcia-cs) and treat your card as a PCMCIA card (use hostap_cs not
hostap_plx).
