	the code in pccardd that compares the cis data in the card to
that listed in the database (the file /etc/pccard.conf, unless you
have used the "-f" flag to specify a different file) is very straight
forward:

for (cp = cards; cp; cp = cp->next)
        if (strncmp(cp->manuf, sp->cis->manuf, CIS_MAXSTR) == 0 &&
            strncmp(cp->version, sp->cis->vers, CIS_MAXSTR) == 0)
                        break;
sp->card = cp;
if (cp == 0) {
        logmsg("No card in database for \"%s\"(\"%s\")",
                sp->cis->manuf, sp->cis->vers);
        return;
}

	either your database must have a non-printable character that
is causing the string match to fail, or a tab in place of a space, or
perhaps you are using the "-f" flag to specify a different database.
