Russel,

    Were you able to use this to identify the problem?

    As a test, I tried the card in an old Toshiba Libretto 100CT running 
2.4.26...  The pcmcia package definitely sees the card... "cardctl 
ident" identifies it as an Intersil ISL3890.  But even that machine 
compains a little:

PCI: Enabling device 15:00.0 (0000 -> 0002)
PCI: No IRQ known for interrupt pin A of device 15:00.0.  Please try 
using pci=biosirq.

    So I guess I'm not gonna try pci=bioirq.  Please let me know if 
you've been able to identify the problem with the 2.6.* kernels (I don't 
care if I get it working on the Libretto) or if there's anything else I 
can do to help.
