Wondering if there has been any update on this problem. I'm also getting a 
kernel panic when I include the DEPCA nic in the build. Without it, the latest 
git kernel works, but with it I get the panic. I am working on a new version of 
the g4l project, and the latest kernels are working with some hardware that 
the older ones don't, but this this fails, and I have at least 1 user that has this 
nic. I've been getting about 9000 downloads per month on the project, so 
would like to get it working. It does work with some of the older kernels on 
the iso, but if a user has this nic and hardware that requires the newer 
kernel.
