These cards work just fine out of the box. The only caveat is that 
I have seen them refuse to share irqs with other pci drivers.

When I asked why this was so, I was told that some pci device drivers were
ported directly from their isa counterparts, and were never updated to use
shared irqs.

YMMV.
