If this card is just a point-enabled one, then there is no chance to
solve this, as you cannot control it via PC Card Director and if you do
remove the card then the machine will stall.

If this card is PC Card Director aware, then you can control it via PC
Card Director and one can safely remove and reinsert the card without a
crash. The first thing to try is to power off the card before going into
suspend or hibernation. If this does not work try to remove the card
before going into power saving modes and re-inserting it after wake up.
If this does not help, you can look into the various parameters for the
PC Card/PCMCIA drivers (see the read me), but my experience tells me
that these parameters usually don't help to solve a problem.
