Interesting, gut feeling would be to redownload the firmware and fsck 
the drive, I'd also double check the card for bad solder joints around 
the antenna pick up.  It's amazing what weirdness can happen when the 
dust gets disturbed :)

Assuming of course, the firmware goes in (looks like it), the correct 
/dev entries are appearing and it's just not finding anything. 

If you've got a signal booster between you and the ant' it might be a 
good idea to either rip it out or make sure any indicator lights that 
should be on, are on.   If all of that's good... and you don't have a 
Windows box to throw it in and test (hey, I'm not above suggesting it's 
eeprom's gone boink and needs resetting... which the Windows drivers 
might do)... in to yee deep dark spares bin she goes :(
