Ah, that is news to me, and very helpful. I was able to recreate your
problems here after removing my pcmcia carrier board. This will shift
the PCI configuration values around, and that in turn will cause the

I put up a new patch that should get around this problem:

BTW, here is the revision information from my machine here:
