@ Jim Lieb It does seem to compile and run reasonably well in 32 bit but the version you built is not 64 bit safe. I have cleaned up a number of those issues now and we are regularly committing changes upstream. As soon as I have a reasonably stable 32/64 bit driver running, I will try a backport

@Jim Lieb I got it to compile in staging in our ubuntu-karmic git. ... As for carrying this in Karmic, we prefer that the driver at least be on its way out of staging before we consider it for inclusion. This keeps the not-inconsiderable maintenance cost of an non-mainstream patch and its churn
