Hi all,

I'm happy to test it again (assuming my Amiga still works, not used
for a while).
But I'm waiting until you guys have perfected the patch.

My code is based on the patches here: http://www.g-mb.de/pcmcia_e.html

I'm not deep into it, just adapted the patch. And that's why I can't
tell if the other drivers will work with it always enabled, sorry.
