here's the problem: subordinate is 0a, but the cardbus bridge has
0b to 0e. so you have to change that one the 0e too:
	setpci -s 00:1e.0 1a.b=0x0e
do that before you plug the cardbus card.

the problem is known and being worked on. there is a bugzilla entry of
which i can't remember the number. but meanwhile put this line into one
of the init scripts...
