I just installed them yesterday. It works quite easy, though you have to make sure you unload your kernel module, or strip your kernel. Follow the installer and it works like a charm. The unregistered version required an reinstall every 4 months, but that's not too bad. And you get some screen when you boot the unregistered version. It's rather annoying since increases boot time.
