Hm, so for some reason, firmware on your machine is telling us
that it doesn't think cards are present and/or enabled.

Unfortunately, I don't know why your firmware would be saying
that. We could add some more debug printks to see what firmware
thinks about your system... Or we could just wait and see what
happens after you get your hardware replaced.

No difference in before and after. Odd.

If you want to poke us again after your hardware swap, please do
so. Sorry for being not so helpful. :-/
