I didn't have any page faults, but I didn't do much with the system other than some basic tests of the card. Does this driver have a maintainer? Any volunteers?

It does detect the card now. However, the system is now a bit unstable. It won't shutdown properly.. never gets to the "press any key to reboot" screenk and has a page fault every now and then. Not sure if this is related to the patch or not.
