It does work, if you replace the 0x1 with another valid configuration entry
for the ep1 interface (I used 0x3, taken from dumpcis.)

Something similar works for the PCMPC100 Linksys cards as well.

The reason I had trouble with it turned out to be a problem matching the
correct entry in the card database: My cards are 3Com 589D's and detected
as such, but the pccard.conf entry that they are matched against is the one
for "3Com 589". I suspect there is a problem with the matching code, maybe
it takes any matching entry, instead of the longest matching one?

(For the 3Com cards, it doesn't matter since both entries use the ep
driver, but it took me a while to figure out why my changes to pccard.conf
didn't do anything.)
