Interrupts are absolutely vital in many cases, but in some (much less

familiar with the details of cardbus or WiFi adapters, I don't know how
much they matter here. (Though I strongly suspect that you're right.)

Given the various mentions recently on this list, I should have thought
of trying that even though it's not (to me) an obvious connection. I'll
give it a try.
