No, but I'll be an apprentice.

You are right, somehow the bios sets up the card properly. isapnp_find
resets the card to the power-up situation, and things stop working. 
There is something fishy with the card about retaining state after it's
being reset.
might be a magic thing to do to the card to configure it to work properly
after isapnp_find() is called. Do you know what the bios does to initialize
the card?

Have you tried resetting the card after it is probed, and then doing the inb()
in the attach routine?
