Comment 11 for bug 35140

There's a fix for this in dapper-updates now:

pcmcia-cs (3.2.8-5.2ubuntu6) dapper-updates; urgency=critical

  * Don't start pcmcia-cs after upgrading from breezy, as the start script
    can hang breezy machines on occasion.

We recommend that upgraders include dapper-updates in /etc/apt/sources.list while upgrading.

With regard to making pcmcia-cs no longer an indirect dependency of ubuntu-desktop, we'd like to, but unfortunately it's a little complicated (and in any case it wouldn't help with this bug because pcmcia-cs was an indirect dependency of ubuntu-desktop in Breezy too).
