Re: unneeded pccardd daemon running
pccardd seems to be a kernel process, and is not the same as pcmciautils
stuff. I assume that it should be removed once you remove the
pccard-related modules.

To remove manually, use rmmod.
To avoid them from being loaded automatically... things seem to be
changing a lot in the hotplug/udev world. The way to do it used to be
to add a file to /etc/hotplug/blacklist.d that just lists the modules.
Now it seems that you should look at /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist, and add
a similar file to /etc/modprobe.d/ (although I'm not entirely sure about
that).
