Yup yup .. for some reason (i.e. it must have been included with some popular distro) pcmcia-cs version 3.1.19 is everywhere. I realize that more people will ask this, and so I'm going to try to start a FAQ so that I can stop answering this bug report ;) .... You can read on the sourceforge site for the pcmcia-cs package to find out what the exact issue is with it, but suffice to say it has something to do with 16 bit IO access vs. 8 bit IO access.
