since the cbb(4) driver locks up on my other system with my TI 1225
cardbus bridge, I resurrected another machine with pcic(4) ISA PCMCIA
interface for sole purpose of playing wireless router with my orinoco
silver PCMCIA card.

now the kernel can see the card and doesn't lock up, but I'm getting
"wi0: wi_cmd: BUSY did not clear, cmd=0x0" on card insertion.

is there an easy fix?

here's the relevant bits from dmesg:

maybe I'll have to nurse my multia back to health after all.  :P
