Sounds like interrupt conflicts or I/O conflicts to me. The PCMCIA
subsystem assumes (badly) that only the interrupts and io space it
knows about are in use and that all the rest may be allocated. Make
sure that every device on the machine is probed and registered during
autoconfiguration -- if you have a device that isn't being registered
(like a sound chip or something) you are going to have the sorts of
troubles you mention.
Another problem that sometimes shows up is that some PCMCIA
controllers only have certain interrupts wired to them...
