i got another one from the PCMCIA-HOWTO, section 2.4.1:
include port 0x100-0x4ff, port 0x1000-0x17ff
include memory 0x80000000-0x80ffffff
this works for me... a little bit.
i have a memory card from sandisk where i have to reboot the machine if
i want to to use another card afterwards (even the same sandisk card)
a wlan card i plugged in last week also got recognized with that setting
which did not when i still had the old x86 setting (though the sandisk
card worked most of the times with the x86 setting).

i really do not know and really appreciate your work in finding this
out. :)
