Load or build the MMC/SDIO stack modules with debugging.  If you don't
see a lot of log spew when the MMC/SDIO modules load, then obviously
libertas won't be able to find your card because the MMC bus doesn't
know about it.  You should also see stuff in /sys/bus/mmc/devices when
the card has actually been found.
