uh? i don't want to be impolite, but are you sure that the card was properly inserted. i've seen several time that if a pci card isn't put deeply in the slot, the pci controller doesn't see it. pixel had a graphic card which wasn't correctly plugged and one day the card goes 1 militers out of the slot because pixel moves his pc; the box seems freezed; when connected via ssh, we saw that X11 was eating all cpu time and wasn't killable (was D-state because pci writes were interrupted when card say goodbye). he reboot but the box only say "bip bip" until we figure that the card wasn't corretly plugged. > so I pulled out the card, stuck it in a different pci slot, and lo > and behold, after adding the lines in modules.conf, it worked!
