It is not clear from your post what machine you are using.  Please post
some information about your kernel boot parameters and hardware (laptop
brand, chipset, processor...).

On my Winbook XLi I must add "pci=irqmask=0xafff" to get keyboard and
mouse to work correctly with cardbus.

This is not a panacea.  The exact mask must be calculated and it may
require trial and error to determine which bit mask works best with your
hardware.  The incantation is slightly different with a 2.6 kernel.

I had a link with detailed info on how to calculate the mask but I can't
seem to dig it up right now.

Please post the contents of /proc/interrupts as well.
