2.4.20pre11aa1 freezes after inserting a PCMCIA ethernet card

Hi all!

I have a Toshiba Satellite 2540 CDT laptop. It works with a stock
Redat-6.2 2.2.14 kernel RPM (but not with the 2.2.19 Update RPM -
symptoms are similar to below). The system is basically a RedHat-7.3
with the 2.2.14 kernel from RedHat-6.2 and some newer RPMS from
RawHide.
The Kernel (probably) freezes after inserting a Surecom PCMCIA
Ethernet Card (EP-427/EP-427-T) since it always fsck'es the
filesystems during the next boot. If the laptop is booted without
the card, everything is working properly (though I do not do much
without the network card).
This happens if the PCMCIA card already is inserted during startup or
if it is inserted later on (after a successful boot as described above).

The last output before the freeze is:
---- snip ----

`lspci -vvv` and `dmesg` output in the attachments.

Is there other interesting debug info?
