I'd just like to point out that a hell of a lot of cards are based on
the same chip, but that doesn't mean they'll all work out of the box on
Linux. If you're cards PCI id's aren't recognised, if you're lucky you
just need to force a card=<card_number> for the module parameter on
load. And that'll give you a setup for another card that might have the
same settings as yours. Or you could add your PCI id's to the kernel,
which is what I did for our cheap ass Taiwanese cards.
