>I've tried compiling this driver with kernel 2.6.31 and it's not
possible at the moment.

@Matthew Tompsett

In post #29 on this thread it is explained that this code has been taken
up by the Linux kernel team working on drivers, and that there is a
working version of this driver (works for 32 bit only apparently) in the
kernel staging area.

>I suppose this means this driver won't be available in Karmic, unless
someone patches it.

Someone is patching it. That is exactly what the staging area of kernel
development is for.

In post #31 there is a comment from the maintainer promising to provide
a compiled version for Karmic for testing purposes once the code has
been cleaned up satisfactorily.
