Usually you just include 'cbb', 'pccard', 'cardbus' and 'ath' in the
kernel (and a few others for ath), and it works.

That's good.  There's no pccardd anymore.

You'll need to turn on pccard debugging.  The bridge in your laptop is
known to the driver (which surprises me!), but looks like it might be
TI6411-class (which should be in the tables, I'll double check).
