Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that PAO (renames and) replaces pccardd,
pccardc and apmd, as well as making PAO-specific changes to pccard.conf.
If you want to switch back and forth from PAO to non-PAO often, you'll
probably want to write some simple scripts to rename these for you and
switch kernels.  You should still reboot each time of course.
