Kernel 3.4 apparently brings support for this particular card. This
kernel bug report seems to be the most related (although not
specifically this problem) and mentions specific patches:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42869
Downgrading severity since there are options like nomodeset to get around this.
Best wishes,
Mike
