Just grabbed and built.  No significant change.  Listing for dmesg
follows.  The driver still took practically forever to load, "i2cdetect
-y 7" still takes forever on timeouts full of "--".

My next move, when I can connect with this friend, will be to plug the
card into one of his machines.  Has anyone else gotten one of these
cards and NEVER tried it with Windows?  I'm wondering if there is some
one-time initialization that the Windows drivers do, or it's still
possible that what I really need is an RMA.
