The "bad tuple" warnings are not necessarily a serious problem, and
the card appeared to be configured successfully (and a reasonable UART

Can you show the output of "dump_cis"?

I am unfamiliar with the Zaurus and you may need to ask a Zaurus
expert whether PCMCIA serial devices are actually known to work on
this platform.

You'd have to ask someone who knows more about the Zaurus.
