It's not there. Also if I load it by hand nothing happens

Mmh, I don't think that this is a bug in the driver.

Since I don't get any message from the system, when I plug the card in I
rather assume something more fundamental.


I don't find that express card module Wayde was mentioning. However, I would
assume that Express card support shoud com out of the box.

What possibilities for testing and error traacking do I have. Are there any
listeners, with which I can check if the system reacts to the card somehow?
