I'm guessing everyone does the 'revision' change if the chipset
changes. Otherwise - they can't provide the 'correct' driver for
windows :)
Also, on this list - there are plenty of posts about these cards with
model numbers (but not rev numbers). I'd rather have them post the
'lspci or cardctl ident' for them.
BTW: What does 'cardctl ident' say for your cards?
