Glancing quickly at a recent kernel tree, I still see a driver for this piece of hardware. I wonder whether the card is not being found because its in PnP mode and therefore the kernel doesn't see it for whatever reason. Attached is a file we cary in Ubuntu that can help get this card working again in PnP mode. No idea if it will help you, but it may be worth a try. Luke
