Hi Shawn,

It would be good to get confirmation that the driver that exists upstream actually works for you. If you can test the Intrepid kernel which is already rebased with the upstream 2.6.25 kernel and contains the driver of interest that would be great:

It's up to the kernel team if they will backport for the Hardy 8.04.1 release. However, I doubt they'll do that without confirmation that the upstream driver works. At the very least, you'll have an option of running the Intrepid kernel which will provide support for you card (assuming the upstream driver works). Hope that helps. Thanks.
