That card will work ... it will just whine a lot.  I have changes that
deal with the new firmware changes that I'm working on.  Before that
used to be a fatal error now it is just an annoyance but tells us when
the firmware changes.  So I have fixed for the non-MPI-350.

I'm also working on a tougher issues with a MPI-350 with newer firmware.
I got part of it figured out but the card still has some issues so it's
not really ready yet.  That TX implementation has changed.  I hope to 
make more progress this weekend.  However, since documentation isn't
available I have to guess at some of it :-(  Also work has been consuming 
a lot time recently.

It would be great if a Cisco person could explain what TX_CPY really does.
I'm guessing.
