irq 6 is bogus.  It conflicts with the floppy drive typically, and it
is extremely rare that it is usable.  Looks like your BIOS is
assigning this for you (how helpful).

: Neither can I assign a different irq to the nic. The pccard.conf doesn't 
: have irq 6 in it (actually "irq 3 5 10"). I don't know why pccardd assign 
: irq 6 when it is not reserved in pccard.conf. 

You can't.  When using pci interrupts, you must share with the bridge.
