When this was included in Hardy, the maintainers indicated that they would be attempting
to get the driver upstream. For whatever reason, this did not happen. It is quite a bit of work
for us to maintain drivers that are not upstream. It is felt that the maintainers of the two drivers
should work together to get a combined driver upstream.
I posted the patch to the ubuntu kernel team mailing list for inclusion in Karmic. The request has been NAK'd
and the patch will not be accepted.
