There were problems with ExpressCard hotplug last I checked. Getting the kernel to
recognize a card when it's plugged in is not possible all the time. Try booting with
the card already plugged in and see if it's recognized then.
Thanks,

I'd guess the card is not PCMCIA but ExpressCard.
Might be, never used either before, actually I thought they were two
names for the same thing...
NB2: I
couldn't see anything in dmesg after inserting the card and lspci
is the same with the card attached and detached...
There's your problem.
Try loading the acpiphp module.
Hmmm
atte@vestbjerg:~$ lsmod | grep acpip
atte@vestbjerg:~$ sudo modprobe acpiphp
[sudo] password for atte:
atte@vestbjerg:~$ lsmod | grep acpip
atte@vestbjerg:~$ sudo modprobe acpiphp_ibm
ERROR: could not insert 'acpiphp_ibm': No such device
atte@vestbjerg:~$
Strange thing (but what do I know), "sudo modprobe acpiphp<tab>"
completes to "sudo modprobe acpiphp_ibm", suggesting that there's no
acpiphp available on the system, still I get no error when loading it
*and* it's not showing in lsmod after attempted load.
Here's what dmesg have to say:
atte@vestbjerg:~$ dmesg | tail -n 2
[ 45.626648] iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: Tx aggregation enabled on ra =
a0:21:b7:d7:fa:15 tid = 0
[ 90.387533] acpiphp_ibm: ibm_acpiphp_init: acpi_walk_namespace failed
Reading
http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/ExpressCard_slot + your reply,
makes me thing I made the mistake of buying a pcmcia, whereas I in fact
should have bought an expresscard/54.
