I imagine the answer is "firmware", so it'd be good to collect some
data about this.

I also wonder if all reporters mean the same thing when they say it
"doesn't work"? The original reporter was complaining that neither
driver claimed the card - that's no longer the case.

All users:
 I'm interested in collecting the following data from each of you:
  1) BIOS/FW versions reported at POST (before the kernel starts)
  2) boot log when booting the etch kernel
  3) boot log when booting a kernel w/ the workaround:
