I had problems with this card also.  What I did was
to edit (or rather create) a pccard.conf as follows.

First I looked at dmesg to see what interupts were
not used (which it seems you have already done something
equivalent).

Then I looked in pccard.conf and arbritarily tried
changes to io - as a shear guess, I changed

io      0x240-0x360

to

io      0x340-0x360


It worked, but I don't know how I could have systematically
obtained this info, nor if it is actually the correct thing to
do.
