Can anyone who has one of these cards tell me the product id as shown by 
lsusb? I have bought one, and am interested to know whether the bios 
will give me errors. sierra.c in the kernel only has one product id for 
that card, but I have seen a patch for a ubuntu kernel for someone that 
had an x61 (i think) and the product id needed to be added to the sierra 
source. Also, if the bios does give me errors, am wondering if its 
possible to edit the cards eeprom like the ipw2200 workaround and change 
the product id so that the bios is happy. Thoughts?

Cheers
