Just a FYI: Thanks to the excellent Debian kernel team, the mantis driver (backported from linux 2.6.34) is now included in Debian kernel images starting with version 2.6.32-16. This means that mantis based cards will work out of the box in the next stable Debian release, "squeeze".

This info should probably go into the assorted wiki-pages with all sorts of outdated documentation on how to download and build the driver, but I'm not nuch of a wiki writer. I prefer putting it here for Google to find...

I addition to the Debian kernel team, I owe a big thanks to those of you who have written the driver, helped pushing it upstream, and continue to support it. Thank you!
