there firmware issues?
I didn't experience any problems, things just worked OOTB with
a plain Archlinux installation (which is 'minimal' compared to
some other distros), and nothing extra.
The one thing I didn't find out so far is how to enable the card
if it is plugged in after booting. It should just be a matter of
restarting the right set of modules, but I must be missing one.
Whenever my kernels were responsible for uploading the firmware, they
did whenever the card was inserted.
Did you try 'pccardctl eject; pccardctl insert'?
Don't know if hdsploader can be used to force an upload.
