Hurm.  Now *thatt's weird.  I'll take a look tomorrow, but I think
your card has some funny defaults set.  Your override looked OK, but I
haven't checked in detail.  I'll try to make time tomorrow to
investigate.

Ye Gods, man, where'd you get *that* thing. :-) :-)

Seriously, any sign of documentation for it?  Can you tell me what
board it is?

Your guess about BIOS setup being fritzed may be true.  Is the thing
PnP?  Maybe we can init it through Luigi's PnP stuff.


Take all of that with a grain of salt, I'll know the right questions
to ask once I look over the code tomorrow.
