cardbus/pcmcia under fedora core 4

[Storm]

hi list,

i have been attentively following your correspondence for the past 
couple of weeks in my endeavour to find a solution to my problem. i have 
posted to this list before with respect to another linux distribution 
(suse 9.3). i have now turned to fedora core 4 hoping that there would 
be no problems, but i seem to be in the same jam as before. i hope that 
you will be patient with me. here is my problem:

i have a gericom laptop masterpiece 2440 xl.
system specifications:
p4 2.4 ghz
15'' tft display
ultra ata 40 gb hdd
512 mb ddr-ram
ati radeon 9000 mobility 64 mb
cardbus bridge ENE technology inc. cb 1410 cardbus controller

i am currently trying to correctly install pcmcia under fedora core on 
this laptop, but to no avail. linux will load all pcmcia modules 
(pcmcia, yenta_socket, pcmcia_core) without any messages in the system 
logs. when i use cardmgr, the system freezes completely. thats the end 
of story. output of
