This might be a kernel thing; last time I installed Debian on a box with the 875 I had to compile a kernel with newer drivers, grab the Debian- HOWTO install for instructions, and compile a newer kernel for this box, and go for it. The 875 is a great card. Bonnie ( a benchmark program ) has given me some of my best test scores with the 875 and U/W HD... over 16 megs a second on one.
