The syskonnect driver does work in 2.1.107 with no problems (that was the
first release that it was in the mainstream kernel).

I'll see if thats a problem.

The generic cards I'm talking about use the complete TI chipset (ie, they
use the TMS380PCIA for the PCI interface, which directly attaches the
TMS380C25+54 or TMS380C30 to PCI).
