Ah, indeed updating from 2.11.500 to 2.30.8000 has fixed the issue.
(The driver could print a warning for this?)
(Note: updating the firmware has been rather annoying due to the complex
and complicated way the OEM branding [this is an IBM card] is designed.
If you have some way of passing up user experience feedback, please put
a note down on this.)

I noticed, the kernel driver from the external package is referencing
things that have disappeared from the kernel around version 3.8. Though
I don't see why there is both an in-kernel driver and a separate
package...
Thanks for the firmware pointer,
David
