Disturbing in what way?

Click on "Manual/ Driver/ BIOS/ FAQ

then click Driver(3).

They have Linux (your OS) and QNX (my OS). I don't remember if I tested
them or not, but I'm sure they work. This card seems well supported.

I just pulled the linux driver. It seems pretty simple. Open(block or
non-block), read(), write(), etc. It has examples, too.

The FPGA just interfaces the sja1000 (well documented) with the PCI bus.
What is the big problem?
