Hi Andrey,

there's a driver for these cards being developed by SysKonnect which 
will be out pretty soon. Unfortunately, it's a) binary-only and b) not 
for -current, only 5.2, 5.3 and 5.4.

If you're interested in support for these adapters please send a short 
mail asking about this to

support@syskonnect.de

The more people ask, the higher the probability that a driver for Asus 
LOMs will be provided.
The same goes for documentation. If enough people ask, things might move 
in the right direction.

[cc me to reply, please. I'm not subscribed to -current]

Regards,
Gerald
