It "may" properly probe the card. If it gets past the probe, it should work fine. There is some funny timing issue on the probe that is causing problems. I wrote the driver, but I did it blind. I have a 2742 and 2842, but no 294x card to test it on, so fixing these problems has been slow going. -- Justin T.
