I posted a longer msg on port-i386 about my latest find.  In short it
looks like this is a Sony Vaio 505tx bios problem.  When I turn on all
the *VERBOSE options in the kernel config I get this:

Sep 22 12:45:23 pasillo /netbsd:                [NG]

The same lexar card works just find on 3 other x86's with the same
-current kernel on the following:

	Intel VS440  (venus PPRO 150) + webgear isa/pcmcia adaptor
	Toshiba t4800ct (ancient 66Mhz 486 dx2)
	Sony Vaio 505VE (more recent version of the vaio)

If you have a second computer to test on perhaps you'll also find that
the card "just works" on those.
