Pccard problem with NE2000 clone

Hi,
I recently obtained a Toshiba Satellite 2540CDS and I planned to use an 
NE2000 clone PCMCIA card for network access. This machine has a ToPIC95B 
bridge in it. Since that machine has no network access I thought I'd try
it in my main work laptop (Inspiron 8600 with a TI4510 bridge) and it
has very similar symptoms.

I get the following dmesg output (with debugging sysctls cranked up) when
I insert it.

I have if_ed loaded, note that the i8600 is running -current and the Toshiba
is running 5.3-REL.

I made up the attached diff, but no joy.. Any help appreciated :)
