I updated the kernel sources today from CVS so my kernel version is
NetBSD 1.5_ALPHA. Since I only have access to the cardbus card
(RBEM56G-100) at the moment here is the message from /var/log/messages
when I put it in:
<CUT>
Jul 18 18:30:26 ob3000 /netbsd: pcic_chip_socket_enable: status c
Jul 18 18:30:31 ob3000 /netbsd: pcic_wait_ready: ready never happened,
status = 0c

I got the same message in /var/log/messages when i disabled cardbus
support in the kernel. (I had to disable cardbus support to get my Xircom
creditcard Netwave up and running :) Life is hard. )
Here is a little "cut" from my kernel config file:
