Which leaves us with 2 possibilities: 1. Linux relies on the BIOS to detect the card, and in that case there's probably no way to have it working if inserted after booting, 2. Or there is something in the boot sequence that scans the pci bus, and in that case it should be possible to repeat that operation. I've no idea wich one is correct, if any. On a related note, I have a PCIe Raydat that even locks up the PC it's supposed to be used in before it even reaches the boot menu. But according to the firm we got it from there's nothing wrong with it, and they refuse to replace or exchange it.
