Belkin wireless card stops working - atmel_cs

[Debunk it]

Hi,

I've been using this wireless card for over a month with Ubuntu and has 
never failed until yesterday. This is a Belkin F5D6020 v2 Wireless Notebook 
Network Card on an IBM T30.

Right now, I can't boot the system with the card plugged in. The process 
cardmgr hogs the CPU and syslog fires up too trying to keep up with the 
logs. This is what syslog has to say:

Sep 20 20:16:54 localhost cardmgr[5704]: Common memory region at 0xb7ed62ad: 
Generic or SRAM
Sep 20 20:17:00 localhost last message repeated 122460 times
<repeat many many times...>

When I insert the card *after* boot up, I get this message:

2.6. kernels use pcmciamtd instead of memory_cs.c and do not require special
MTD handling any more.

The message is printed once and for all subsequent attempts.

It seems like the kernel does not recognize the card anymore. Could it be 
that it's been foobared?

This is the kernel log of what happens when I kill cardmgr and restart the 
pcmcia service:

Sep 20 21:27:20 localhost cardmgr[6895]: starting, version is 3.2.5
Sep 20 21:27:29 localhost kernel: cs: pcmcia_socket0: unable to apply power.

Sep 20 21:27:30 localhost cardmgr[6895]: + FATAL: Module sram_mtd not found.
Sep 20 21:27:30 localhost cardmgr[6895]: modprobe exited with status 1

Sep 20 21:28:01 localhost last message repeated 694491 times
Sep 20 21:29:02 localhost last message repeated 1380527 times

Here's what happens when I rinse and repeat:

Sep 20 21:32:04 localhost cardmgr[7057]: could not adjust resource: IO ports 
0x100-0x4ff: Device or resource busy
Sep 20 21:32:04 localhost cardmgr[7057]: could not adjust resource: IO ports

What needs be done to fix this issue?

Thanks.
