Ok folks - here's what I have when I disable acpi on bootup for the LinkSys 
card.

dmesg output:
Timecounters tick every 10.000 msec
cardbus0: <network, ethernet> at device 0.0 (no driver attached)
cbb0: CardBus card activation failed
ad0: 19077MB <TOSHIBA MK2023GAS> [38760/16/63] at ata0-master UDMA33
acd0: CDROM <TOSHIBA CD-ROM XM-1902B> at ata1-master PIO4

Reinsertion of card:
cardbus0: <network, ethernet> at device 0.0 (no driver attached)
cbb0: CardBus card activation failed

Any ideas?
