yeah, i think this is the root cause of the problem. if the card has
been found, you can use hdsploader to re-upload the firmware iirc, but
unless you see it in lspci, there's nothing you could do.
i have the same issue with an expresscard ieee1394 adaptor - it will
only work when it's inserted before booting.
