>Description:

	NetBSD 1.5.1 Beta seems to be having trouble 
	reading the CIS structure from the card, and ultimately decides that 
	something is wrong.  Some debugging output from pcmcia_cis is enclosed 
	below.

	I've tried the card on a 1.5R system, and it's recognized
	there.  I tried building a kernel with the 1.5T /sys/dev/pcmcia
	files (except for the wdc driver and the if_ drivers), but
	that didn't work.

	BSD/OS recognizes the card, too; here's what it says:

	tpce_pd_cv: unknown extension byte 0x6d
	Slot 0: flags=0x3<UP,RUNNING>
		Attached device: com4
		Manufacturer Name: "Novatel Wireless"
		Product Name: "Merlin Ricochet Modem"
		Additional Info1: "NRM6842"
		Function ID: 2 (Serial)
		Assigned IRQ: 9
		Assigned I/O port1: 0x3e8-0x3ef



	Here's the debugging output from 1.5.1 Beta.  I've deleted a
	lot more ov the CISTPL_NONE\n00 traces.

>How-To-Repeat:
	Insert the card -- nothing happens.
