I believe this is a cardbus issue. As I've said before I have at least
one bridge+card combo that doesn't work in HEAD because of an apparent
regression in the cardbus code. I'm not familiar enough w/ the cardbus
code to suggest where to dig but if you boot another system on the same
hard and the card is properly identified then you can sift register
settings for a clue.
