Let me stress that it is the socket which is not recogniyed, not a

It looks OK for me:

I don't mind experimenting with yenta_socket, but I don't know how to
force it as the preferred module. Besides, with 3c589_cs the card is
working OK in socket 0 and 1. I am using it now to send this email.

I don't use Cardbus cards in my experiments.
Just in case it can be of some use:
