I just wanted to note that currently the automatic loading of the
firmware at boot time only works on Ubuntu and derivatives, because of
the ubuntu-specific udev rule <-> ift-load interaction. This should be
fixed in the 0.6 release I hope. Also as soon as this is fixed I will
build openSUSE RPMs and post a link in case someone needs them.
