responding to my own post again.

i was able to get pccardd to recognize the ac510, but when it attempts to
set up the card ( i assume that is what it's doing :-) ) pccard coredumps.

i 'spose that i need to rebuild it with -g and step around innit'.

Note that this is an HP800CT running 4.3-RELEASE ( because i cant install
4.4-RELEASE because the install kernel panics when it finds my funny
pccard emulating cardbus controller )

does the debuglevel stuff that is mentioned in the 4.4
/etc/defaults/pccard.conf work in the 4.3 version?
