A big guess, but are you guys sure you have no interrupt or similar
conflicts? I have a problem with Xircom modem which sounds similar to
the ones described in pcmcia-howto in relation to the interrupt conflict
even though my /proc/interrupt doesn't show one. Changing the irq works
(from line being hopelessly slow to te normal speed of 56k modem).
HTH,
