My current problem is not so much lack of bus speed but being able to talk to the card at all. The AST J10 doesn't use the hard-coded addresses at port 0x3Cx as implemented in the existing pccard driver. It seems to use a PCI bridge and the PCMCIA controller (a Cirrus 672x) which appears at port 0xfcfc. Attempts to probe for more than two cards hang the laptop :-( Having found that, I now have some diagnostics about not being able to assign an I/O port .. it's getting there .. The symptoms are identical with the D-link 650CT and the 3C589C, michael
