No I did not have any other card inserted. I can see that it indeed is
a 32 bit card from
cardctl status:
Socket 0:
no card
Socket 1:
3.3V CardBus card
function 0: [ready]

No, no signs of it. Maybe I have mised something when I compiled the kernel?
In this case pcmcia is compiled into the kernel while on the laptop it
was compiled as a module. Can that affect the result?

OK, thank you for your answer. I have now one more question:
There is no sign of action in any of the logfiles when the card is
inserted. Shouldn't there at least be some note about "unknown card
inserted" in the logs?
