Thank you, Tobias! I'll try to use that. As I understand I need to write driver package definition using Guix Manual #Defining-Packages. Is there some difficulties with driver packages?

You're probably breaking the law by even hosting that link: there's no licence to be found anywhere, let alone one allowing redistribution. This is why proprietary software sucks.
