I'm currently having the same problem with a ISA PnP ISDN card and have hacked my kernel a little bit to have a basic PnP support. Although it does not very much until now, but recognize all installed PnP cards and give information about their resource usage and such, I think I could manage to extend this to a fully functional PnP support with some help maybe. You must know that I'm not very experienced about kernel hacking until now. For a fully working PnP support the driver had to modify kernel device tables etc I think.
