This is the job of hotplug. But the Debian hotplug startscript
/etc/init.d/hotplug doesn't allow to load the firmware needed to fire
up your card. I filed a bug (Bug#226441) against this and am using
the startscript out of the original hotplug sources. If you like, I
can send you that script via PM.
