Anonymous Memory

I have a Xircom REM56G-100 and a linux kernel 2.4.25 (demudi).
A while ago, when I had kernel 2.4.18 this all worked swimmingly, but it
hasn't since I've updated.
I have the following modules installed according to lsmod
xirc2ps_cs 11216 0 (unused)
i82092 5992 0 (unused)
ds 5940 2 [xirc2ps_cs]
i82365 11780 2
isa-pnp 26736 0 [i82365]
pcmcia_core 40320 0 [xirc2ps_cs i82092 ds i82365]
The card is recognised as 'anonymous memory' and gives some errors during
boot. In response to the notes on PCMCIA-HOWTO I thought to adjust my
memory & ports range in /etc/pcmcia/config.opts as follows:
#include port 0x100-0x4ff
include port 0x100-0x35f
include port 0x800-0x8ff
include port 0xc00-0xcff
#include memory 0xc0000-0xfffff
#include memory 0xa0000000-0xa0ffffff
#include memory 0x60000000-0x60ffffff
include memory 0xd0000-0xdffff
include memory 0xc0000-0xcffff
However this is no more than guesswork.
---------------------
The boot messages now read (dmesg):

-----------------
Finally, as a piece of info which may or may not be related:
#/etc/init.d/pcmcia stop
Shutting down PCMCIA services: ds: Device or resource busy
done.
Is that correct behaviour?
TIA for help as to what I should do now...I;m a clean out of ideas, and
can't find any more via google it seems.
