Does this actually work?  Dell SB Live cards are quite dissimilar to 
normal SB cards, so this change to be insufficient. Identifying this card 
has been added and then removed before (see revisions 1.50 and 1.52, for 
example), and the general consensus at the time was that there is no point 
identifying it if there is no way the driver can work with the card yet - 
it simply gives a false hope that the card may work.
