Well, I think there's more to it than that. I could program the card,
sure, but what about the PCI bus and the ACPI code that fiddles with
the PCI slot. I'm not at all clued up on how PCI sleep/resume works,
so I'm scratching in the dark here.

I think there's some code in the windows driver to put some older
cards into some very specific PCI sleep states (and force them to not
enter deep deep sleep?) but I'd have to re-review it.
