They do need drivers. The card has some basic drivers on it (in the
PROM). I have the 2-port version and started to work on it, but never
got much response from the company after they sent me the card a while
back. I'm tempted to go ahead and reverse-engineer it, but their docs
are rather explicit about forbidding that, and I figure that I've got
better things to do with my time, anyway.
