Public bug reported:

I have a Kingston CF-card reader for PCMCIA.

When I use it, the computer is almost unusable. It is *very* slow. When
I type something the letters appear on the screen several seconds later.

Full dmesg *before* I insert the CF-card into the reader can be seen here:
http://thomasdamgaard.dk/p/P629.html

Full dmesg *after* I have inserted the CF-card and transfered some files from 
the CF-card and then ejected the card can be seen here:
http://thomasdamgaard.dk/p/P630.html

However, I think this is the important stuff:

I have tried with several different CF-cards. Both Canon, Kingston and Sandisk.

The CF-cards use vfat filesystem.


My laptop is an IBM Thinkpad T42.
