yes, PCMCIA.

I also tried with the 2.6.11-lowlat. kernel from Ubuntu/Debian, ALSA
1.0.8. This also did not work.

Before, I got an error when running the hdsploader, that it could not
find the firmware file.
Now, I don't get to that point anymore (doesn't find the card at all,
it seems)

Maybe, I'll do a quick check whether I get the thing working under
Windows...

I have.

here's some info:
