the problem has been reported on four different chipsets:
ENE C1410 (ico / mandrake)
o2micro6933 (myself / gentoo)
Texas Instruments PCI1250 (timothy ... i hope you don't mind that i call
			   you timothy ... just to make it easier to 
			   follow this discussion / red hat, planet 
                           ccrma)
ricoh ??? (derek / gentoo)

- derek: what problems exactly did you have? i'm not exactly sure, if
  your problem was similar to the one, ico, timothy and myself are
  experiencing ... 
- ene, o2micro and ricoh are cardbus bridges, rme doesn't suggest for
  using with an hdsp ... but they haven't had any complains about ti's
  cardbus bridges...

it's not a problem of the hardware revision of the hdsp, since i had the
same problems with thomas charbonnel's device, mine worked fine on his
machine ...

i hope we can track this problem down, since i'd really prefer to save
the money i wanted to spend for a new laptop for my summer trip to
nyc...
