Re: 3c59x and cardbus

[Pozsar Balazs]

But the weird fact is that after the _first_ load of the module (3c59x),
both of my cards work perfectly. The problem only occurs (and can be only
helped by reboot) if I rmmod it, and then try to reload. I don't think i'm
having irq problems, but i can check it tomorrow.
